Cheese Tasting


The Nordic Museum recently held a Swedish cheese festival celebrating Swedish cheeses and cheese-makers. As soon as I read there was going to be samples, I had to attend! The festival allowed us to experience the huge range of different cheeses produced in the country. 


It was interesting to taste how the same type of cheese can taste so different depending on the region, type of cow, etc. 




I also learned that Swedes prefer more milder cheese for breakfast (most Swedes eat sandwiches for breakfast) and the stronger cheeses later in the day for lunch and/or dinner. 

Belle was voting for her favorite cheese 
Belle wasn't a fan of the stinky cheeses :) 

The cheese tasting was a fun and "cheesey" experience!
