If they have the Jasper Hill cheddar, get that! It’s absolutely delicious! I buy a ton of cheese but specifically buy the cheddar at Costco because it’s so much cheaper!

What?! That’s blasphemy!

But if you buy them for guests from Costco, make sure it’s for a big group and/ or people that will be visiting for more than a couple days. Esp if you don’t eat them, they do go bad and if you don’t eat them, you might not realize, especially soft cheeses. I normally buy my regulars from Costco, but otherwise stick to WF or cheese stores for items I only want for small groups or special occasions.

Agree, costco cheese is great! They do come in large pieces, so great for a crowd, or just get one at a time. We get the huge blocks of feta and freeze half for later. It that’s pretty well, especially if you’re just crumbling it into salad or cooking/baking with it.

Kids love the smoked Gouda, I like the pecorino Romano and buffalo mozzarella.

+1000 for Manchego, Petit Basque, Comté...

I once got a Harbison from Costco, which is so much better than all of the fake bries on the US market (authentic Brie is made with raw milk, and aged no more than 6 weeks, which makes it illegal for the US market...)

I'm a cheese snob, and think Costco sells some great cheeses!

These are known brands. Why not by them at Costco?

Depends on the cheese. Love the red wax Gouda. The Cabot in black wax, the manchego

It's good, but you have to commit. My favorite is the cave aged cheddar - it's always a hit when I put it out.

It’s just as good, but sometimes I don’t want such a huge piece of cheese!

I've been buying cheese at Costco for years (mostly Parmigiana), and I don't think Whole Paycheck's cheese is any better. You can always try the old blinded Pepsi challenge with both to see which you prefer.

Was there today and I noticed that their cheese prices are $10-$11/lb. vs. WF $20/lb. Is WF really that much better?
