Did you know that cheese is the most stolen food in the world. In fact, it’s stolen so much it has its own percentage! About 4% of all cheese made around the globe ends up stolen, and there's even a black market for cheese. You can read more here

Cheeses, we are spoilt for choice.
Do you have a favourite?

All the best Jan

It's a hard choice! I love sharp cheddar. Before my son became a stay-at-home-dad, he was a cheese monger for a specialty cheese store.
That is crazy! I would never have suspected that.
I love sharp cheddar but swiss is close behind.
I love medium, strong and extra strong cheddar, Swiss cheese, Brick, Emmenthal, Brie, Mozzarella, mild cheddar, Feta (occasionally, just in a Greek salad). Great share, thank you so much!
Amo el queso. te mando un beso.
I'm not surprised that cheese is often stolen. It's so tasty. We mostly have cheddar in the house but occasionally we get another kind. One we don't care for is the blue.
I did not know!!!
I like all types of cheese, except blue cheese and gorgonzola. But I have my favourites: Swiss, Emmental, Jarlsberg, Cheddar, Ricotta and Burrata.
What food would I take to a desert island? Bread and cheese !
I remember reading this:
"In a notable cheese heist, approximately 22 tons of cheddar were stolen from Neal's Yard Dairy in London in late October 2024. The heist involved a fraudulent buyer posing as a wholesale distributor, leading to the theft of over 950 wheels of cheddar. The stolen cheese was worth over £300,000."
Mmmm, cheese. I love Swiss cheese.
I love medium cheddar with everything. I do enjoy Parmesan and many other cheeses. Practical Parsimony
I love cheese, and yet I refused to even try it when I was a child :)
A great article, I love cheese, now I won't feel guilty when I have that little bit extra. Thanks, Avril x
I do like most cheese (except Swiss cheese). I had no idea that cheese was the most stolen food stuff. Thank you for adding to my trivia collection.
Dear Jan this is striking information for sure
Sending love and hugs🥰
spoiled for choice! Butlers Blackstick Blue, Snowdonia Black Bomber and Rock Star {cave aged} Jarlsburg and many more!
How extraordinary! I love cheese, too much . . .
I did not know there was a black market for cheese.
I do love cheese! Have a great day and happy week ahead.
I didn't know that, and it's surprising, isn't it? I do love cheese though, Wensleydale is my absolute favourite.
I like cheese and don't have any favorites. I love many varieties and buy it from the farmer. I pay attention to the processing... it tastes better.
Best wishes to you and have a happy week.
Had no idea that that much cheese was stolen, amazing.
I'm a cheese fan.
I've heard this. In Canada we had a great syrup theft. That was a tale.
I had heard of fake Italian parmesan and English cheddar, but not of stolen cheese. Interesting information about such illegal phenomenon.
That is definitely news to me. I prefer Colby-Jack.
...news to me!
That's mad! I would not be stealing any cheese haha! :-D
I love cheese! All kinds of cheese - from feta to good old provolone:) But please no blue cheese. Ugh. Here's to a cheese sandwich for lunch today!
I did not know that fact. I love cheese - probably a little too much.
So interesting! -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
I didn't know the cheese facts and I love cheese. Thanks for sharing, Jan.
I had no idea.
I love whatever is the sharpest cheddar one can find!
Interesting about the cheese crime. Who would have thought!!
Oh I like lots of cheeses, but my favorites are edam, cheddar and mozzarella.
Oh my goodness. I didn't know that. That's a funny thing to have get taken. I do know that cheese is considered one of addicting foods so I guess that makes sense that it gets knicked.
I do love all kinds of cheeses but I will say that pepper jack has been my favorite lately.
Me encanta el queso, en España los tenemos buenísimos. Tampoco sabia que robasen tantos quesos. Besos.
