Ann, it sounds like your can was not stored properly. The unopened cans must be stored in the refrigerator for best quality and flavor. They will age indefinately, getting sharper and more crumbly. As the chz ages, it emits butterfat & whey; simply drain off. If the chz has gotten heat damaged it will emit more liquid at a faster rate, and the chz will be softer like you described. Still edible, though, but best used in cooking.

I love Cougar Cheese. Since I can't afford shit right now, I will go to sleep tonight and dream that I'm in a giant room of my very own stacked to the ceiling with unopened cougar cheese tins, polishing off a wheel of cougar gold like some starved orphan. Oh, you have no idea. I'm a fanatic about the stuff.

Cougar Cheese You asked, we listened! Another batch of our popular Cracked Pepper & Chive cheese was produced in honor of Ferdinand's 61st year of operation. It has just become available for sale and is already flying out the door! Quantity is limited and, once sold out, won't be available for sale again until Fall 2010.

Many of us are starting to experience the cool fall weather and what better way to warm up at the end of a long day than to cook up some hot soup.

We are shipping to Michigan, and most of the top half of the U.S. We've removed the colored map, so if you don't see your state listed = OK to ship. Listed states/areas = no cheese 4 u :(

Cougar Cheese Extended HOT temperatures in Eastern Washington mean delay in resuming shipping. (Another good reason to get your summer and early fall supply shipped by April.)

My grandfather was part of the scientific team that discovered the Cougar cheese. I am looking for some history on this process if anyone could help me out. I do remember mention of using bat caves.

Jef, the Viking is a mild, semi-soft cheese very similar to Monterey Jack. As you discovered, it is not comparable to the Cougar Gold, which is an aged, sharp, cheddar cheese.
