When is National Cheddar Day?
Monday February 13thOn February 13th, National Cheddar Day will have some cheesy goodness!
To be honest, grilled cheese would be buttered bread without melt-able slices piled high; burgers would be lacking a spark without a zinging ooze; mac & cheese would be...mac. So many of our popular American dishes would not be the same without a slice of cheddar's delectableness.
Cheddar history
This love of cheddar has a long history. How exactly did cheddar become a staple in so many of our favorite dishes? Let us tell you!
In the 12th century, Cheddar, England's village of Cheddar, first appeared in the village of Cheddar. Although cheddar accounts for more than a quarter of all cheese sold in the United States, it 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.
