I can guarantee that whenever you open my fridge, you will find a drawer full of cheese. Yep, there might not be much of anything else…but there will ALWAYS be cheese.

I used to tease my boys and call them little mice because they ate so much cheese. I guess at this point, they are gigantic rats! While most people have bread and milk on their weekly shopping list, I have cheese and more cheese on my list. Seriously, I would estimate that probably 80 – 90% of our meals include cheese.

Being the cheese fanatics that we are, we know good cheese. So trust me when I tell you, Cabot Cheese is good cheese!
