THIS CHEESE. Have you ever seen a field full of Lavender? It’s beautiful. Especially during a summerly sunset. The sky is pink and orange, with a slight overcast. It’s a very calming view. Can you picture it? Okay, Good. Now go into the field and eat the lavender. Yes. Eat it. Eat the plant from the field and enjoy the opulent sunset. They packed this feeling into the La Di Da Lavender Cheddar. I don’t know how Cheddar was able to absorb this feeling.. But they found a way. You will NOT regret your decision with this cheese. Pair it with the Organic Flatbread Bites and you have a certified snack. I would give this Cheddar 6 stars if I could.
