4.0 out of 5 stars One of my favorite snacks, February 27, 2005

This is my favorite cheese. It is particularly tasty when sharing each bite of cheese with a pretzel stick or two in the same mouthful.

When I lived on the mainland, I would routinely buy Tiger Swiss Gruyere on almost every other grocery trip. If you like high quality cheese, try to find this in your supermarket in the highly visible yellow round pack, with 6 foil-wrapped wedges. The assorted flavors are also good, but I just prefer the plain variety.

When I moved to Hawaii, I just couldn't find it in any local store. Bummer! I now have to pay almost as much for shipping as the product itself. By mail order, it comes shrink-wrapped as 6 yellow round packs of 6 wedges each. (You don't have to refrigerate it, and it tastes better at room temp.)

My only complaint -- the mail order wedges are skinny 2/3 oz each, 4 oz per round, 24 oz per 6-round package. The supermarket wedge is one oz each, 6 oz per round. Watch out if you look at photos, since they incorrectly photograph the larger 6 oz rounds.

I bought 2 packages (12 rounds) on Thanksgiving and ran out today. I just placed another order. Why would anyone pay $40 for 3 pounds of cheese? Because I can't find it any cheaper here, and save a LOT on shipping by buying two at a time. If your supermarket carries it, it should be about half that -- you don't have to pay shipping you lucky dog!

I've used this for about 25 years, have no idea why it is no longer available at the grocery store. And seriously, you could keep it on your dashboard all summer and it wouldn't spoil. A cheese snob at heart, this has never let me down.

My family can recall enjoying these cheese treats for over 4 decades.
We always had them in the summer on picnics and in the fall in
our lunch boxes the first week of school.
Tiger had stopped production for a while, so VERY happy they
are available again, wish local stores would carry !
Do not spend your money on The Laughing Cow brand, just try these !
