It can't be a Maasdam, it must be an Edam but it's a bit too holey for that. 

 

Emmentaler of the Seas perhaps?

[MicCanberra]

Perhaps it is the Sea Bries.

[MicCanberra]

That ship is not Gouda.

[ozdevil]

could be BEGA OF THE SEAS

[gbenjo]

It sails the deep blue cheese.

Maasdam is the only ship I can think of that actually shared its name with a cheese.- well, up until the pandemic. Whichever way, I do love cruising. I would go so far to say I am rather fondant of it.

 

PS: I am aware of Rotterdam cheese, but that is a type of gouda.

I'd never heard of Massdam cheese but my comment about Emmentaler of the Seas was closer to the mark than I realised since Maasdam cheese was created to compete with Emmentaler

Barb "works" in a woolies deli, and they have Maasdam there, so it is almost as familiar to me as fetta or brie.

I often buy Maasdam from Aldi.

The ship looks a bit big to be navigating all the way up the river to Philadelphia.

 

Cheers 🤣

Yes I feel the same, most of the comment just swiss passed me.

I must try it one day. Our Woolies reorganised their store recently and I'm still trying to work out where all the good cheeses are. Instead of having them in one place they now have a specialist cheese area with really expensive cheeses, the standard block and sliced cheese display, and the rest are on the ends of the prepared meals displays, so these day we tend to go to Harris Farm Markets for cheeses but I don't think I've seen Maasdam there.

[MicCanberra]

If you get a chance try the spiced Gouda, it is one of my favourites, (it has cumin in it, along with some other spices)

[lyndarra]

I like adding Persian Feta to salads along with sultanas.

My deli wife quite prefers Riverina fetta, the "smooth & creamy" one.

Blessed are the cheese makers!
