Cheddar: The Story of America’s Iconic Cheese

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Cheddar: The Story of America’s Iconic Cheese
Published: December 6, 2015 by VPR Producer

This holiday season, there probably won’t be a celebration in the country that doesn’t contain cheese in some form or another. It’s one of America’s favorite snack foods, and cheddar is our favorite variety of the dairy product. But what is cheese? How is it made and how did cheddar get to be America’s iconic cheese? And how do “processed cheese food products” fit into the mix? Our guest is a cheese expert and will answer those questions and more!


Guest Information:

  • Gordon Edgar, cheese buyer at Rainbow Grocery in San Francisco and author of the book Cheddar: A journey to the heart of America’s most iconic cheese
