WHO was it that told me they recently found Manchego cheese in their local Kroger grocery store in the USA??? I think it was Gazpacho. Well guess what!! I went today and YES! THEY HAVE IT!! FINALLY! It was $16/pound but nice to know they had it onhand. Somehow, I doubt they sell much at that price and since it's relatively unknown - but this is a good start for "exposure".

Saludos, MadridMan

for the boards Brit contingent, saw Manchego in Asda last week :p

Nice one notyor

Which store did you find it in? One near to you?
My nearest is Huddersfield, but it's almost as quick to get to Oldham. Not that I'd go all that way just for cheese of course

I've checked to see if they have manchego available for on-line shopping, but nooooooo

Nice to know it's available somewhere though incase I need a fix.

Thanks.

Carol, I purchased a couple of wheels at the supermarket of the Corte Ingles located in front of the Hotel HUSA Princesa. No problem bringing them in either. I also bought a Tetilla, a Galician cheese which is also very delicioso!
Good trip!

For those in UK, Sainsbury's do it in their 'Taste the Difference' section, but at £13.93/kg .. I don't think so

If you live in the Pacific NW, you can visit The Spanish Table. Also you can shop online at www.spanishtable.com

Excellent quality and service!

In Texas at the Central Market (gorment market) there are a few differnet types of manchego. My father loves manchego and some every week.
