Gerald has been sniffing out the finest wheels, wedges, and waxed rounds since 2009. He's tasted over 14,000 Australian cheeses and has no regrets. Well, one: the incident with the vegan camembert from Harris Farm.
Four steps. Very rigorous. Disappointingly consistent results.
An ALDI ad airs during MasterChef. You think: "Could they really be that good?" You type comparethecheese.com into your browser. You are here.
Our CheeseScan algorithm cross-references DIAA award history, price per gram, and meltability across 847 products at Woolies, Coles, IGA, Harris Farm, and ALDI.
We present an impartial, fully ranked comparison table. ALDI is at the top. We have checked the algorithm several times. It keeps doing this.
You already knew this would happen. We've simply provided the data-backed justification you needed to feel good about it. You're welcome.
Real people. Real cheese. Real savings. Probably.
Spent three weeks on this website convinced I'd eventually find something better than ALDI. I did not. I appreciate the honesty though.
Brought the Emporium Brie to Christmas lunch. My brother-in-law asked where I got it in the impressed voice. I said "just a little boutique place." It was $4.49 from ALDI.
The Westacre Tasty won a DIAA Gold Award and costs under four dollars. I don't know what I was doing buying $9 cheese from Woolies. I have stopped.
