  • "The English Original"

    The history of cottage cheese is a bit of a mystery. At some point it crossed the Atlantic to the United States and became hugely popular; whereas over here it faded into obscurity. So popular was it with the Americans that it was even supplied to the US Navy during WWII. And it was in 1944 that Lt. Joseph Dickinson RNVR , whilst serving in the British Pacific Fleet, first came across it.

    The second contact came in 1964 during a trip to the USA to look at modern farming techniques. From such chance encounters emerged the idea to try making cottage cheese on a commercial scale back in its country of origin. It took another ten years before the first pots appeared. Using a vat the size of a bath-tub, wooden hay rakes as stirrers and literally hand-packed, it was a labour of love.

    After a while, the switch was made from a sweet to a soured-cream dressing and so was created English-Style Cottage Cheese: born and bred at Longley Farm.

Great cottage cheese. Shame about the price

Like many others I have been eating this since childhood. Now unfortunately I no longer buy this ad the price has tripled in addition to them now not using a cover to keep for longer. I now opt for the polish cottage cheese available in most supermarkets and honestly it’s not a bad second at £1.15 a pot.

Something has changed

I can't quite put my finger on it but something has changed. It's still very good but it's inconsistent. The best thing used to be it's dry creamyness, but the pot I just had was quite wet. The last few pots were dry but very granular. It's not the same. I guess expansion brings changing production which lessens the product maybe. Shame.

Simply the best

I have been eating this brand since the 1980s I think, have tried all the others but I always come back to Longley Farm
