This replaced the Dutchmark brand, but it's not nearly as good. The flavor and texture are different - a little smoother, but not as smokey. I also HATE the label. After opening, if you try to fold the wrapping back around the cheese, parts of the label 'flake off' and you get black (and white) bits all over the cheese and your hands!

I've always bought the Dutchmark brand. They were out of it so I bought the Members Mark. I'd never seen that one before and I'm always willing to try the store brands because you never know. I bought it, tried it and ended up throwing half of it in the trash. It was waxy and didn't have much flavor. Waste of money. Bring back the real stuff. Please.

I bought this cheese when Sam's quit carrying Dutchmark Smoked Gouda a few months ago. It was nothing like the Dutchmark so I returned it for a refund. I read some of Sam's answers to some of the negative reviews that said they changed the formula and smoke to improve the taste so I decided to try it again. Still not good and not worth the money. This was a big mistake on Sam's part. I wish they would ditch this substitute and get Dutchmark again. I will be returning this cheese AGAIN and will not purchase until they carry Dutchmark. I recommend to anyone not to purchase this cheese.

A good quality cheese taste great

This makes wonderful flavor in mac and cheese or cauliflower and cheese

This is the best Gouda cheese!

Really tasty, full of flavor

Really fresh and Smokey flavor is not overwhelming! Love the Gouda

This is a mild tasting smoked gouda cheese

Should have read the label a little closer. This is processed cheese. Not good
