I used to buy smartprice/value cheese without even thinking about it, just assumed it was the cheapest, then I started shopping by £ per KG and it turned out it wasnt the cheapest. I just do a quick check of £ per KG and decide which cheese that way. Usually the shops own is cheaper than smartprice/value/basics.

DH and I will eat any cheese that tastes good. With cheddar, we usually just get the value mature one from wherever we're shopping. Haven't had a problem so far.

I buy mature cheddar from Lidl/wherever usually for cooking and the cheese addiction of DP (swear he's part mouse!) when the good stuffs gone that's what he has. Cracker cheese, salad cheese etc, sorry I'm a cheese snob I usually buy a nice selection from the farm shop or somewhere like http://www.churchmousecheeses.com/index.php?mod=category&id_ctg=27 or http://www.thefinestfoods.co.uk/shop/index.php?act=viewCat&catId=1 I'm not keen on blue cheeses, churchmouse does some lovely unpasteurised cheese (think that's the page the link is for) I know it's expensive but so nice you don't need as much for a proper cheese fix, nomnomnom....

they sent me some smartprice cheese as a substitute once and when i read it said it needed to be taken out of the fridge an hour before eating!!!!

it also states its a cheese alternative

I believe that Cathederal City 250grm is on roll back at Asda for £1 per pack or at least it was when I did my online shop last month

I only buy whatever is on Special, I never buy if the pack says ,,,,,coloured ......cheddar

TBH I grudge paying full price for cheese now, to me cheese is turning into a luxury item, a decent cheese is so expensive

Carberry mature is on offer in Tesco ATM- £2.04 for 500g. It's a very nice cheese I must say.

I buy strong cheese, so I can use less though they all like crumbly cheese which drives me mad:rotfl: I hate cheese so it's what I can get away with till hubby goes out and buys the correct cheese:rotfl: Somone almost accussed me of being too weird as I hate cheese:mad: :rotfl:
