Without melt-able slices piled high, grilled cheese would be buttered bread; burgers will be lacking without a zinging ooze; mac & cheese would be...mac, to be honest. Without a slice of cheddar's delectableness, many of our popular American dishes would not be the same.
Cheddar history
Cheese is a delicacy that has a long history. How exactly did cheddar become a staple in so many of our favorite foods? Let us tell you!
In the 12th century, Cheddar, the village of Cheddar in Somerset, England, first appeared in the village of Cheddar. rd of all cheese sold in the United States, cheddar is a royal hit in the United Kingdom, where it was made. In fact, more than half of the cheese sales in the United Kingdom go to cheddar.
In 1894, renowned cheesemaker Peter McIntosh brought his cheese-making skills to Tillamook County, Oregon, where it rains a lot and the grass was always green. He gathered the locals all he knew, and in due time he earned himself the name "Cheese King of the Coast." Tillamook is now more cows than people, and those local farmers have since formed the Tillamook County Creamery Association, a farmer-owned cooperative today.
No wonder cheddar cheese finds its way into so many recipes or a simple snack. We're back for more, bite after delectable bite, with the rich, creamy, and occasionally crumbly texture.
