Cathedral City Cheddar

Cathedral City is a brand of Cheddar cheese which is manufactured by Saputo Dairy UK in Cornwall in the United Kingdom.

[1] The original owners of the brand, Mendip Foods, were based in the cathedral city of Wells in Somerset.

Dairy Crest bought the brand from Mendip Foods Ltd in July 1995,[2][3] moving production to Davidstow in Cornwall, which has neither city status nor a cathedral.

[7][8][9] In 2014, Cathedral City was cited in research published by the British Medical Journal highlighting the fact that branded cheeses generally had higher salt content than supermarket own-brands.

[10] YouGov’s BrandIndex ranks Cathedral City the most popular brand in the Chilled/Frozen, Packaged Foods sector in Great Britain[11].
