Yes it is .
No it is a soft cheese made from water buffalo milk.
There are hundreds of types of Cheddar. The basic varieties a re "mild", "Mature" and "Sharp". Many regions now make their own versions of cheddar most of which have their own distinct taste.
The calorie content in mature cheddar cheese and crackers can vary based on the specific brands and portion sizes. On average, a 30g serving of mature cheddar cheese contains about 120-130 calories, while a standard serving (around 30g or about 4-5 crackers) of plain crackers typically has around 70-100 calories. Therefore, a combined serving of mature cheddar cheese and crackers can range from approximately 190 to 230 calories. Always check the packaging for precise nutritional information.
That is about half a pound of cheese
My brother works in the food industry and his theory is that the gritty texture of mature cheddar is due to lactose crystals...anyone know different?

A good cheddar substitute for recipes needing a strong cheese flavor is aged Gouda or aged Swiss cheese. These cheeses have a similar sharpness and depth of flavor that can work well in place of cheddar.
basicly you get some cheesy willy with blue cheese,red leicester, mature cheddar, cheddar, edam all of that all metled on toasted bread with butter! :D
Cheddar - the village, and Cheddar Gorge - the feature, holding Goughs' and Cox's Caves (show-caves). Ironically one dairy uses the exit tunnel in commercial-rival Wookey Hole, at the foot of Ebbor Gorge only a few miles from Cheddar, to mature its own Cheddar Cheese!
I prefer white cheddar... I prefer white cheddar...
rub a strong cheddar cheese onto it,then rinse and your hands should be as good as new!!:)
It tastes much like normal cheddar however it is much richer in flavour. Quite a dilicous cheese in small doses but if you eat too much of it you may find it is too strong. I much prefer it to normal cheddar but that is my personal opinion. Try it yourself! -Oleg
