Humboldt Fog is the best cheese I've ever tasted, and it's from the U.S. Cabot Cheddar I would compare favorably to other cheddars, we have some good cheeses here.

Parmesan though? I would just buy less & still get the reggiano. Sometimes I just stand by the display and smell it, it is so good.

Possibly one of the best cheddars in the world is from the US (and comes in a can)

Cougar Gold

I've had it, it's really good, and it keeps basically forever in the refrigerator, arguably getting better as it ages

Your taste buds might be cooked 😂

It sounds crazy, but it is a legit cheese, it's even won some awards. It's basically a wheel of cheese that happens to be packaged in a can.

Washington State University has pretty big agriculture and food science programs, so they make cheese, and back in the 40s the us government gave them money to research how to put cheese in a can, so they've been doing it ever since.

$70 per can?!?!

Edit: for THIRTY ounces!?

[–] Fondots@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Not sure where you're seeing $70, price is $33/30oz can

Also, everything on that Amazon page seems to be "shipped and sold" by various 3rd parties. I don't really understand the inner workings of how being a seller on Amazon works, but I'm not convinced that WSU actually has anything to do with that page, at the very least it doesn't seem like you're getting your cheese directly from them when you go through Amazon and there's some extra companies adding markups and taking a slice of the pie along the way.
