Asda owned by Walmart. Didn't they have a thing in the US of adding sawdust and cardboard to the cheese and it still being legal to sell?

Is this Extra Mature any better than the Asda Mature cheddar (ignoring that it probably has a lot more salt in it!)? I bought their Mature recently and was quite disappointed just how watery it gets when heated. The flavour is OK if you are not cooking with it but it doesn't have a great flavour or texture if you want to cook with it - especially grilled when it just becomes a liquid mess.

I'm a big cheese fan. Not a connoisseur, but I just love cheese. Any cheese. But was so disappointed with this. Just doesn't seem to pack the flavour that extra mature should. Each to their own, but only giving my opinion.

This is decent stuff as far as I'm concerned.

This is the best cheese and when we go away caravanning I stock up before we go. We do like the less fat one, still extra mature and other supermarket brands come nowhere near the taste of Asda's.

To produce milk from dairy cattle, all calves are separated from their mothers soon after birth and fed milk replacement in order to retain the cows' milk for human consumption. Animal welfare advocates point out that this breaks the natural bond between the mother and her calf.

Unwanted male calves are either slaughtered at birth or sent for veal production.

To prolong lactation, dairy cows are almost permanently kept pregnant through artificial insemination.

Although cows' natural life expectancy is about twenty years, after about five years the cows' milk production has dropped; they are then considered "spent" and are sent to slaughter for meat and leather.

Thanks for that, you run along and eat some nuts and berries and I'll have a cheese and ham toastie :smirk:

And your point is? If this didn't happen then I would have no cheese, no yogurt, no butter, no milk, no veal, no steak and no leather pants!

Not to mention the other aspects of our lives which involve cow parts in their construction:- Many medicines including Insulin for example, is produced using cow pancreas. Various sports equipment (leather), Car tires (stearic acid in production), Gelatin, Fire Extinguishers (keratin), Sugar Refining (bone char), Hydraulic brake fluid (cow fat), Explosives (glycerin), asphalt and many others that can include candles, cosmetics, crayons, perfume, mouthwash, toothpaste, shaving cream, soap and deodorants (can all contain stearic acid derived from cow fat).

Joking aside, if you don't agree with eating meat, milk, eggs, fish or any other food, then that is your choice, but the majority do not agree with you. But cows derivatives are used by nearly every human on the planet wither they know it or not.

Anyways back to the deal, stronger the cheese the better! Its a good price for strong Cheddar.

Go and save the planet somewhere else. Half of it was dying from starvation when I was born (some time ago). It still is. Nothing changes. And, most importantly, you won't change it!
Enjoy yourself.
While you can. Have a glass of 'full cream milk', not that skimmed rubbish, on me.

Disgraceful!, they should all be sent for veal production.

Honestly, I've been buying this for two weeks and never thought to share it on here, what a dip. They do the Red Leicester on the same deal too, made a really nice broccoli cheese with it last night.

On a side note - wtf is Mickey doing? That's wrong dude, stop.

Cheap, but it's not very nice. Seriously strong tastes far better. If you don't care about the quality of your cheese, buy this.

Clearly you are correct.

I'll contact the mods and get this 500 degree+ post taken down ASAP.
