I've always wondered why Cheddar hasn't protected its name in the same way as, for instance, champagne. Cheddar seems to be made the world over and I wonder how the tastes vary. Quite considerably, I imagine.
PS. Good to see you back in action! :)
Hello sweet Marie, how are you!
This post has everything delicious and the story is very interesting as well!I liked this illustration a lot!
Please forgive our absence, we were travelling again and now I have a lot of laundry to do ! :)

By the way, Marina is so sorry about her absence at PFF as well.She just started the new school here and everything is new for her and she is at school all day long.Anyway we hope that soon she can be able to return to do her collages and show beautiful postcards in your meme!
God bless you!
I reserve my swooning for advertisements a bit older than the Forties, Marie. The artists from 1890-1940 were more than craftsmen. By the Forties with some of the advertising dollars being spent on radio, companies were more focused on quantity instead of quality when it came to advertising. These Kraft ads were colorful, however!
Those adverts are so evocative! Like your new blog name, Post Lady!
I love vintage food illustrations. Sometimes the food looked amazing and sometimes it look disgusting! lol
I love good sharp cheddar .. but Kraft sadly is not even real cheese but a cheese food/product ... I dont even want to know what its made of ...
I love vintage illustrations. Mmmm...delicious.
This is right out of my childhood! Ah, memories!
Oh! I love cheese too. Darling, I have missed your visits!!! Hope your day turns out to be a lovely one.
Love, Hugs & Tea

and I do love Kermit...but have been meaning to say, I love your profile pic of the real you :o)
Blessings & Aloha!
Hi Marie! I love cheese no matter what kind of cheese: cheddar, or the Dutch Gouda or the French cheeses. I also love these old posters and picture postcards! Thank you!
I like it sharp. I like old ad illustrations from 1940s and 1950s too.
I think I'll stay with the crackers...
Hi Marie: Good to see you in action. Cheese is such a tasty topic. Just the other day my husband's aunt was talking about making "John's Day" Cheese. I'm not quite sure what that entails, but she does it from scratch, I'm sure I've eaten it, but... John's Day is celebrated in early/mid June, with a huge bonfire and girls weaving daisy wreaths for their heads, and then setting them off in the river from whence your betrothed will come, what does this have to do with cheese not much I suppose. Great post.
I agree that the illustrations used in 1940s ads have a certain charm that photos do not.
Yes, that certainly was a HUGE block of cheese. ;-)
Do you like vintage comics? I have a new blog:

They are all kind of cheesy.
Cheese is good on everything and with everything. : )
Another cheese postcard! Love it, but your blog always makes me hungry!!
Mmmm, Velveeta. Great vintage ad! Almost makes me want to bring Velveeta to Paris with me next month. Ok just kidding. Great to see you back!
I like the older adverts too, they definitely have a great look. Love your new name, it is very appropriate.
Cheese is fine with me but not the strong tasting ones, in general.
I love cheese in everything I eat. Especially in pasta and spaghetti. Also in bread. Hmmm..yummy!
This vintage ads are wonderful and make great framed pictures in a kitchen area. Fun posts
oh those recipes on that ad are priceless! amazing how tastes change! :-)
