After finally coming across a good, strong and pun

2 stars

After finally coming across a good, strong and punchy ( like it said on the packaging) I was more than happy to buy a block on a regular basis, we eat a lot of cheese, but now I have lost interest in Pilgrims Choice. As so so many of the posts have said, it has gone from stong and punchy with a gorgeous aftertaste to a childs version that is not worth purchasing, rubbery, weak and certainly NOT Extra Mature. Shame, but I shall start searching for a replacement asap.

If rubber was edible......

1 stars

This used to be my favourite cheese, it was strong & had a lovely flavour and texture. Now it's horrible, rubbery texture and definitely not extra mature. Its definitely changed & I won't buy it again.

Flavourless rubber !!

1 stars

Flavourless rubber !! Last I checked extra mature cheddar shouldn't bend. Great if you want a cheap alternative to edam, otherwise avoid.

Not extra mature.

2 stars

Thought I'd try this because it was on offer, no way will I be buying it again. This is barely a mature cheddar let alone an extra mature one, there's no bite to the flavour at all.. Very disappointing.

Family favourite

5 stars

Lovely strong cheese, always have one block in use and another 2 in the fridge as well.

Lovely punchy flavour.

5 stars

Lovely punchy flavour.

Its gone from good to very bad

1 stars

We purchased some of this not too long ago & it was strong & tasty. Just purchased two more packs & its like tasteless rubber. Not as described. Has there been a packaging mistake ?

What’s happened!

1 stars

I have purchased this cheese for years and it was excellent, crumbly with a lovely strong flavour but the last time it was awful, no flavour at all with a weird rubbery texture.

Poor Pilgrims Choice

1 stars

I have had Pilgrims Choice Extra Mature Cheddar for years and it's been very good. This last block of 550gms is tasteless and rubbery no hint of any crumblyness very disappointing will not be buying this brand again!

Shocking

1 stars

Awful cheese, texture like Edam (rubbery) and tasteless! What's happening, it's described to have 'a slight crunch and a mighty tasty punch'. The cheese graders should be hot under the collar with embarrassment.
