Although simply defined as "a wholesome article of food, made from the curd of milk, coagulated by rennet, separated from the whey, and pressed into a solid mass" the entire human population knows of its universal appeal, its many, many variations and its importance in Man's nourishment.
With Melton Mowbray already having a long-standing reputation for certain food products, among them Pork Pies and Stilton Cheese, and set to be the venue for an International Food Fair in 2004 now is the time perhaps to concentrate on a little research into other famous commodities many of which are readily available here and the pleasures of eating them.

BEST DUTCH for Cheese and other foods (a) ITALY- This Cheese 2003 program follows some of the main themes that are always at the heart of Slow Food activities: education, promotion of quality production, protection of products at risk of extinction and improvement of local areas. As in past editions, European PDO and PGI cheeses, present again this year in the Great Hall of Cheese, will be a focus of attention. But what we wish to highlight in 2003 are shepherds’ cheeses, which will have their own market fair at the Shepherds’ Island.With over 500 French cheeses available in a delicious range of tastes - from the very mild to the quite powerful - there's an almost endless variety to choose from. the FRENCH CHEESE website is here to inform you extensively about French cheeses and offers search facilities for individual types.
