ARO have gone in to cheese.

Tried the Gouda and Edam slices which were fine and yesterday saw they now have Tasty and Vintage blocks. Bought a Vintage at Makro but yet to try.

 

Looks interesting,  how much are the selling for?

I think the slices were  around THB135. The Vintage and Tasty blocks were THB 240.

That's pretty good... in line with what NZ Mainland cheese is selling for. 

 

I'll check them out next time I go to makro.  Cheers

Most likely they are the same product as what is already available with a brandname, but they buy in bulk and get a discount

It's the 'crumbly' type (Cheshire or Lancashire) that I crave!

Villa Market sell both in Pattaya plus Wensleydale. All are what I call semi-crumbly but certainly tasty.

What is the attraction with crumbling cheese? I don't eat any Brit cheeses, as they are not tasteful in my opinion, but when my Gouda or Edammer start to crumble i throw them in the bin

Excellent for toasted cheese/cheese on toast or cold on sandwiches, all with a good twist of fresh ground black pepper. I find them very tasty too.

I hope you don't throw it away because it's grown mould?

Good it may well be Mainland cheese repackaged.

You won't like Lancashire then.

You'll thank me for it.

Bought some earlier this week, First time I've seen it, slightly stronger than Mainland Vintage, and a tad less crumbly. At 190bht for 500g it's very good value for money, well it would be if I didn't like eating it so much. Different shape pack to Mainland, thinner and longer/wider.

It is quality New Zealand cheese from a Mainland competitor.  On special at Marko  now at 199 baht for the 470g block.  Good value.
