No one beats Wisconsin for cheese. Lived there for 11 years & still miss the great variety.

You can buy excellent extra strong Cheddar cheese in Friendship Supermarket, priced at 168 Baht.

As everyone knows on this forum, I have been seeking quality sausage for a long time in Pattaya.

The best I have found is also sold at Friendship Supermarket but it rarely shows up in the fridge.

I don't know whether someone is beating me to it by buying it early doors or if the supply is spasmodic.

I followed the advice of someone on the this forum and visited Western Wholesale (Soi Chayapruk 2). Their sausage is really good (thin pork, thick pork, pork/beef, Cumberland)- and about half the price of Foodland or Friendship (99b)

I also bought black pudding @50b, meat pies @55b and bacon 0.5kilo @199b - all excellent.

They also sell crumpets @50b, which I grilled in the toaster and smothered with real butter and cream cheese - the best I have ever tasted.

I can't recommend this place highly enough.

I got a recommendation last week for pies, sausages etc, so I gave it a go and was pleasantly surprised both quality and price wise.

Here is the web site link. pie shop

Mods sorry if the link not allowed and I have no interest in this business, just trying to pass on info. By all accounts this guy is just starting out with the business.

MAKRO has 1 kilo of cheddar cheese for 650 Baht (their own brand) and tastes quite good.

Also, US ranch style Smokey bacon at 189 Baht for a large bag (not sure if 1 kg or more).

I can only respond to what was written

It was stated "No one beats Wisconsin for cheese."

I am sorry but I would choose France anyday, so I disagree with the statement, "No one beats Wisconsin for cheese."

I can think of quite a few other places as well, such as Holland….

How many French cheeses are on sale in Wisconsin?

And how many Wisconsin cheeses are on sale in France?

The OP was asking about cheddar cheese and sausage - I think you'll find that Wisconsin beats France in these two departments. However, I agree that France has better cheese than America.

[Utterlyuseful]

Suggest you read entire threads instead of selectively picking parts to support your point of view….to reiterate, I responded to "No one beats Wisconsin for cheese." From another poster , and not the OP.….nice try!

Re cheddar cheese, I am not sure whether Wisconsin is No 1 but re sausage there are quite a few contenders, incl Germany, England, and many others…..

Makro has 5 Kilo blocks of white and orange cheddar @b350 per kilo, very good. Yes expensive by US standards but looking at the price of cheese anywhere in Thailand I think there must be a Thai cheese mafia controlling the import.

Difficult to judge this one as I've never had the pleasure of visiting Wisconsin. But then it seems equally clear you have not been to Toulouse.

Is this how you judge quality? Hits on google errr... Mind you at least now I know you have some decent sausages in Wisconsin. Thanks.

[bangkokrick]

Are Wisconsin and Toulouse areas of Pattaya?

Will probably get scolded for drifting but Wisconsin is in fact home to most cheeses in France . The only thing they can't touch is wine. Now Sonoma & Napa valley in California I think has better tasting wines.

Ive got some of this its the Mainland brand .. its ok and tastes fine with my toasted cheese sandwick maker but its a bit bitter on its own IMHO.

The best sausage sarny ive had is from the 18 coins of Soi Boukow certainly upto standard, i'll order some from this Western place thats been recommended and let you know.

Worst sausages are the British pork ones from the supermarket on the left handside as you head towards Jomtien ... avoid at all costs, i ate 1/4 and threw the pack away.

Home home to most cheeses in France? What does that mean?
