Best non-aged breakfast table cheese–when in stock

Customers, good to eat plain or with a piece of bread. Not for salads or cooking. Does not melt or stretch at all. Usually short supply at my local club for some reason. Sam’s managers, keep this in stock. We are tired of the constant supply inconsistency.

Saltiest Panela Cheese: So Sad

This cheese is too salty. We love panela and consider it healthier than other cheeses, but this one we could barely eat given the amount of salt it has. We tried cooking it and it helped, but we didn’t enjoy it as is. It is a shame because panela goes well with everything, but we don’t want to consume all our salt in one cheese serving. The cheese also goes bad very fast; you must consume it within a week after opening or it turns bitter.

Good Product

This is a good panela cheese, similar to the ones you get in Mexico.

Panela frying cheese

I had hoped this cheese would be similar to the one I grew up with. It has a lot of water and it takes a lot of time to brown. Not a lot of flavor so not sure if another brand would be better.

Perfect and Delicious

Amazing. Perfect texture and taste to have him any sandwich or in soups or just by itself. Maybe put it on the side to eat with some fried green or sweet plantains.

Great (if you can get it!)

This cheese is delicious! The only bad thing is I can almost never find it. Sadly, I found out why! This lady in front of me at the register had like a million of them in her cart and I left empty handed. Not nice, people! Share the cheese!
