From the alpine pastures of Switzerland to the caves of Roquefort, cheese-making traditions reflect the landscapes, climates, and cultures from which they originate.
So, whether you're indulging in a cheese platter with friends, melting cheese in a gooey grilled sandwich, or simply savoring a slice on its own, take a moment to appreciate the incredible diversity and complexity of the world of cheese!
