The Cheese Guide 35 Flavored cheese is a $1.5 billion market in the US, according to the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board, and its growth outpaces that of non-flavored cheese. Country Connection's Sriracha Cheddar puts the deli's cheese case in the heart of this market. Country Connection Cheese Company's award-winning Sriracha Cheddar meets the growing demand for sriracha fla- voring. Indeed, this cheddar, made by one of Wisconsin's Master Cheesemakers in the Driftless Hills of southwestern Wisconsin, is a profitable and vi- sually appealing addition to any cheese case. The heat of sriracha is tem- pered by the cooling effect of the dairy, such that its flavor is savored, and con- sumers return to it time and again. Ex- cellent melted on a burger, a favorite on the cheese board, it is the life of the party. Since its launch earlier in 2015, Country Connection's Sriracha Cheddar reorders have steadily grown. Country Connec- tion Cheese Com- pany was established in 1973 and offers flavored, smoked and classic cheese varieties. Sriracha Cheddar is available in 5-pound loaves or ½-pound prepacks.

Premium Swiss Guggisberg Cheese Klondike Cheese Co.'s Traditional 8-ounce chunk in brine is an au- thentic way to consume feta in the family line-up of Odyssey ® Feta Cheeses. With the excep- tional mouth-feel you get from the cheese packaged in a brine solution, you can be guaranteed the highest quality taste and great flavor. Having the availability of the smaller pack size allows house- holds to have the same indul- gence experience at home as they would in their favorite restaurant, using Odyssey Tradi- tional Feta in Brine to create their signature dishes. You can savor the flavor longer when the feta is submerged in the brine solution. If you haven't tasted Feta in Brine, you'll no doubt be impressed by its fresh- ness, authenticity and traditional flavor. Brine-packed Feta also offers a longer shelf life after opening, adding value to the pur- chase. Klondike has mas- tered the craft of Greek-style feta for more than 25 years, with accolades to prove it: Odyssey feta is a first-place con- test winner at the World Champi- onship Cheese Contest winner and the American Cheese Society competition. It has also received hon- ors from the Wis- consin State Fair.
