Cheese of all varieties is enjoyed all year round, however, never more so than around the Christmas period in which cheese becomes a staple of the Christmas table. In fact, the love of cheese at Christmas has inspired some unusual traditions around the world, here are just a few of these:
- It is a tradition in Yorkshire to serve Christmas cake with cheese
- A town in Wisconsin celebrates New Year’s Eve with ‘the big cheese drop’, in which a 90lb replica cheese wedge is dropped in celebration of the town’s cheese industry.
- The team at JS Bailey forgo the traditional brandy and mince pie for Father Christmas, instead leaving delicious cheddar cheese and a glass of wine.
