Sorry.. no photo right now. At a party and tried this one .. A cheddar like cheese in texture, not overly crumbly or pasty with a sharp salty flavor, small casein crystals and a hint of onion.
Flesh is a buttery yellow in color with no rind. More later when I get a chance to research.
If you like cheddar style this is a great choice.

This cheese is awesome! Sharp, salty firm cheese from Trader Joe’s .. no idea who makes the cheese or where TJs gets it from but it’s lovely. The flavour reminds me of parmesan in terms of it’s saltiness but it’s creamier and not as hard as parmesan. Afew casein crystals sprinkled here and there ..always enjoyable and then a peppery coating to add a little spice.
Couldn’t stop eating it.
And it’s cheap! $8/lb. Get thyself to TJs cheese lovers!

You just can’t go wrong with British Stilton. Growing up in England this was naturally the first blue I experienced. I’ve been a stalwart fan ever since. I like its comparative dryness next to other blues. The stronger the Stilton, the better as far as I’m concerned. I sort of lose interest when there’s only the white flesh left that sits inside the thick rind.
