Default Colliers Powerful Welsh Cheese

Following Snowdonia and Cows (yes Cows with no apostrophe) cheese the new Superstore (Loblaws) flyer is advertising Colliers Powerful Welsh Cheese $7.99 for 250g

I'm up for it.

They were selling that in Costco but stopped. I think it was $9 for 500g though. It's nice stuff.

Got some at Costco last week - 500g for approx. $10. Also got the English coastal cheddar and smoked cheddar from there. The children turn their noses up at the local vivid orange stuff nowdays..........

I managed to get some Colliers. Not tried it yet, but in the latest Sobeys flyer they were advertising Farmers Cheddar for $1.99 per 100g.

They had some already cut up/wrapped but it was mild and the flyer didn't make any such distinction. I noticed a notice () that indicated mild, medium or old so, of course, I bought some old.

It really is very good. Not what you'd call mature but it is very tasty. Like a 'tasty' or farmhouse cheddar back in blighty.

Unfortunately it is orange, but you can't have everything.

Tons better than PC's two year old which isn't exactly cheap.

Sorry, got to butt-in!

The only place I have ever found Colliers was ALDI..approx £3.00 for 250g.

Tesco own label mature this week - 2 for £3.00 (500g!)

As a family we get thru about 500g in 8 days...it doesn't have to be mature or extra mature, but being fussy, Chedder is a must!

We hope to be coming to Alberta around April and am looking forward to searching/hunting out a nice cheese (or two!)

Otherwise I will start making my own, just need a couple of years to 'mature' and space to store it all!!

One thing Canada's not short of is space.
