I have moved here from USA and have introduced my aussie bofriend to mexican food. and he’s in love!! BUT we cannot make a decent plate of nachos, because of this cheese issue!!! AUSSIE CHEESES ARE AWFUL to use on dishes i am used to and love. Believe it or not…trying to use tasty cheese on corn chips doesnt work…and the cheese dries unto the chips like glue…not stringy what so ever!!!!! Please help!!!! i found this website from my google search ” yellow cheddar cheese in australia”.

LOL! It’s such a strange term. I was reading a bedtime book that I bought here in Australia to one of my boys and it had a budgie in it and all I could think about was budgie smugglers.

I found out were they sell them and they only sell them at bega so im in sydney and its a bit far from here to actualy get there :S i cant beleive they dont sell it in supermarkets its requested alot from people its silly so go to http://www.begacheese.com.au and on the contact tab ther’s a toll free number contact them and get the details i think they only sell it to take away shops so if anyone decides to go there just say its for a take away shop and give them a name and they will sell it to you my sister has done it several times !

Oh please if you do find out let me know! Thanks! It’s funny though that after being here my little guy didn’t even want to try the American cheese back home when we visited a couple of months ago because of the color! LOL! Maybe if I can buy some and keep it in the fridge he’ll come to like it again!

I’m also from the states and I completely agree! Tasty cheese is absolutely AWFUL. My husband is Australian and he pines for good yellow cheddar almost daily. It makes trying to recreate some of our meals from back in California extremely difficult, especially Mexican dishes. We went to a deli that has lots of different cheeses. They said they used to carry it, but not anymore. *sigh* And by the way, the orange cheese at MacDonald’s and Subway is NOT the same.
