Lidl

I got my Lidl Email in today too. I am hoping that they will have some cheddar as well, as i have just finished my last of the blocks that i brought back in the summer. The baked beans are good - we normally only eat Heinz but my husband and kids say they are just as good. Their caramel shortcake is great and their salt and vinegar chipsticks (crisps) are a vinegar lovers equivalent to heaven!! yum yum!! i always buy quite a few caramel shortcakes to give to our french friends, who love them. Only thing is they cut each bit into four because they say it is so sweet. So if you live near Crolles in 38920 get there for 8.30am and get in the queue behind me! :)

Lidl's quality is usually pretty good.

Yes, hope I didn't cause any offence.

Have you tried the beer shop on the N6 just south of there, really good selection, shame none of it is British

:)

Off to mug her now. :)

We can get Cathedral City in Carrefour in Creche-sur-Soane, are we talking about the same place?

Lidl’s gruyere is an excellent substitute. But you can’t beat the real thing!
The last time lidl had cheddar it was really excellent and incredibly reasonably priced. The only supermarkets that I have ever found stocking cheddar have been in very britty areas - nothing round here!

I have never seen it in our local Geant Casino but will check again next time I get to one. Don't think I have ever been in a U, will have to check where the nearest one is.

A really old comte does the trick but more expensive than cheddar

last lot we bought was €35 a kilo

If I am up in Macon (60kms), I can get Cathedral City cheddar but it's expensive. On my opinion Cheddar is a far superior cheese to cook with than any French cheese.

cheddar is good we get friends to bring it over for us
