We always bought three shillings worth at a time for sandwiches. We also had Edam and less often Gouda. The only parmesan I knew was the smelly pre-grated stuff in jars, none of us liked it. Now I buy parmesan in a black and grate it as I need it.

The yoghurt was equally good and either sheep or goats and of a different texture to Greek yoghurt, at least that which we are sold in the UK under that name. I don't dislike cheese but I find it difficult to get cheese as good as I have when I am travelling.
