Cheddar cheese originated in the English village of Cheddar in Somerset. When visiting England, I tried authentic Cheddar from Cheddar!

Variety in Sharpness
Cheddar can be mild, sharp, or extra sharp, indicating the intensity of flavor. I prefer my mac and cheese with sharp cheddar for extra zing.
Pro Tip 3/3
