French Brie: $24.99 a lb

French? Brie? Patriots only buy American cheese.

What Is American Cheese, Anyway?

What's in American cheese? There's a lot of hysteria out there about it being "full of chemicals" and "not real cheese." This explainer helps set the record straight by discussing the ingredients, process, and regulations around those melty slices.

American cheese does not qualify as cheese because there's not enough dairy of some type. It's pasteurized processed American cheese food.

What is British cheese?

There is no cheese quite like British cheese. More specifically, the low-moisture, high-acid cheeses of Britain have few obvious counterparts in continental Europe. As different as they may seem, Cheddar, Caerphilly, Cheshire, Lancashire, Stilton, and Wensleydale each have more in common with...

Good luck if you're in or near Quebec, they didn't have any in the humongous Carrefour in Calais. You might have better luck finding Pietra, a very tasty Corsican beer brewed with chestnut flour.
