Product Description

You are buying 1 can of 200g each ( 7oz) of the great Australian Cheddar cheese This cheese is manufactured at the Bega plant in Bega, Australia. The people at Bega Cheese, have been making cheese since 1899, and have found a way to put great tasting, real cheddar cheese in a can. This product has a natural cream color, medium cheddar flavor and pleasing texture. It's easy to cut, grate and slice and it's delicious. This product does not require refrigeration and has a shelf life of 24 months.. It's packaged in Australia for folks who don't have refrigeration, like many outdoorsmen, survivalists and campers. Gourmet cheeses are aged in cellars for years to enhance their flavor; since this canned cheddar cheese is sealed in a sterile environment, there's no reason that it can't be stored and used indefinitely. Just keep it reasonably cool, protect it from freezing as with any other cheese, and safeguard the cans from outside moisture that could cause external rust-through.

Customers like the taste of the dairy based cheese. They say it tastes really good, as good as some imported Irish cheeses. Some customers also mention that the cheese is somewhat alright, not worth $12.00 plus $9.00 shipping, and is great with crackers, hard rolls, or sliced bread. Some say it makes good emergency food or for camping, and can also be used as fish bait.

It’s cheese!

It’s cheese!
I opened this cheese up the day I got it just to try it. It has a very mild taste with a medium firm texture. It is definitely a good emergency food item to have on hand! I would even eat this in a non emergency situation, it’s just like any cheese you can get in the stores. If shredded I would definitely like this on a taco or a salad. We tried it on crackers today just to try it and we liked it. Obviously the price is high for just one can, but I don’t want to buy in bulk if it wasn’t good. I would now feel comfortable buying a larger amount. I’d imagine how you store this plays a big part in how long it will last. Under the right temperatures and humidity I can see this lasting a long time. Because it’s all in one piece I feel there is less chance of it spoiling as quickly as shreds would. Give it a try if you’re looking for a “real” cheese to put in your emergency stash or to take camping or hiking. I like that each can has a pull tab, so no can opener needed unless you’re like me and want to open the bottom too for ease of removal.
