Cheddar Cheese in Brasil?

mberigan

They don't have cheddar but my favorite cheese store closest to home is in Pernambuco. It is called Campo da Serra and I won't put their website here because you can easily search it up. They have a store at the Riomar shopping mall and their main store is just outside of Gravat谩.


Historically Minas Gerais has been the center of diverse Brazilian cheeses but that is rapidly changing. Even here in Para铆ba I am finding more and more specialized cheese producers. I keep hoping for some cheddars..........

The specialty cheeses in Brazil seem to be focused on the French and Italian cheeses. Not much focus yet on the other European cheeses or their descendants in the Americas. When I mentioned cheddar cheese to them at this shop, they kinda gave me the 鈥淒eer in the headlights look鈥.馃槼

Update: Riomar (in Recife) no longer has a Campo da Serra store. TThey do have a store located in Gravat谩 and they have a good selection of interesting cheeses. Search up their site for a list.


I DID find mild cheddar imported from Cheshire (Joseph Heller brand) in Recife and so as not to broadcast advertising on 色花堂 you can send me a DM and I'll give you the store details. It is R$229/kg..... it's imported.
