National Cheddar Day - February 13th

I bought some mature cheddar cheese on the way home from work today. Cheddar cheese originates from the village of Cheddar, Somerset, England. Or so I was always led to believe. The Cheddar villagers use to mature the cheese in the caves of Cheddar Gorge. The gorge being on the northern edge of Cheddar village

My parents took me to Cheddar Gorge & the village when I was about 12. As a child I kind of fell in love with the place.
