CANNED CHEESE FOR FOOD STORAGE - Bega Cheese REVIEW

Anything that doesn't require refrigeration is a HUGE PLUS to me -- as I like to be prepare for ALL types of emergencies! 

Also, canned food that can be packed for camping is a major BONUS.

BEGA Cheese, is manufactured by the same company (Ballantyne in New Zealand) that makes the RED FEATHER BUTTER 

This cheese has an indefinite shelf life - meaning it will last for years as long as it is stored properly and the can remains sealed.

Adding protein and variety to our food storage is very important, and I was curious about the texture of this cheese. After taking off the lid, I slid a butter knife around the cheese in a circle to loosen.

The cheese is somewhat like Velveeta cheese, but a bit more firm in texture.

3 family members sampled the cheese. Both self and spouse thought it was delicious - it has a distinct white cheddar cheese flavor, with a combination of Velveeta in taste/texture. The cheese is perfect for slicing and snacking. My protesting teen who originally didn't want to sample, gingerly took a nibble, and proceeded afterwards to pop the entire cheese and cracker into her mouth. Score!

Once opened, I refrigerated mine in a ziploc sandwich bag.

                                                OVERALL, I give this cheese a hearty *****5 Star review, due to the fact that not only does it tastes pretty dang good, but it has a good shelf life and we can enjoy cheese and crackers when the lights go out! Yeeehaw!
