Have you tried Swiss Cheddar ? Apparently he tastes really good and J-Lo has had some.

I have bought Cathedral Mature Cheddar from various Migros and I can usually find cheddar at the cheese counter in Coop and Manor. I always ensure that I am fully stocked up with English Cheddar... (but that's not to say i dont enjoy Swiss cheese!)

Well...most of our (US) cheddar, sharp/extra sharp, is orange! Have a look: http://www.tillamookcheese.com/OurPr...d_Cheddar.aspx
Great for Mexican food, but not up to Grumpy's standards...

How exciting that good-ol-fashion English Cheddar is available in Migros and Coop. We moved here 2 months ago and I have always been a bit fussy about cheeses. I was surviving my Cheddar craving by eating Edamer - but it just not the same.
Thanks for the info.

Also in the Basel area, you can find chedder at Marktkauf over the border in Weil at the end of the No. 8 & over the french border at Geant in St Louis.
In Basel itself aside what has already been mentioned above, the cheese shop on Colmererstasse has a hand full of UK cheeses including chedder - they also have a cheese stall on the market in Marktptz.

I got some Cathedral City Cheddar in Migros yesterday - felt a bit like coals to Newcastle buying foreign cheese in Switzerland, but my kids were thrilled!
