Bega Stringers

Let me just start this post by saying I LOVE CHEESE. Ok now that’s out of the way. I was provided three packets of Bega Stringers to try (along with an awesome cooler bag, some Bega caps & some rather funky Stringers pens) and then post about.

I was a little hesitant to try Bega Stringers as the last time I ate Bega cheese I wasn’t really impressed (that said it was at a BBQ, in the middle of summer) but I was curious after seeing the ads on telly, thinking it might be a great and easy way for Miss K to eat more cheese and an easy way to get more calcium. Cutting slices of cheese of a block ends up with cheese everywhere (couch, floor, hair, toybox etc). Bega Stringers are those individually wrapped cheese sticks that can be pulled apart into ‘strings’. They are made from 100 per cent natural mozzarella cheese and have no artificial flavours (always a plus).

So when the box arrived, we opened it up and decide to try the Bega Stringers Original (at 7.45 in the morning lol). Well they were a huge hit (with both mum & bub LOL) I seriously want to know how they make it string like that. awesome stuff. I love the Original Stringers & the Swiss Stringers, Miss K loves all of them. So they seem to be a hit & I’m sure they’ll end up in the trolley during future grocery trips.

Miss K had a ball playing with the box all our goodies arrived in, pulling out the hats, playing with the hats and then wandering over for some more cheese (did I mention I’m kinda addicted to these things now lol) and being me, I captured it on video (ignore the kitchen & messy lounge room lol).

We ate the packet of Original Stringers in two days and there is now one lonely Stringer left in the fridge. And of course being the good scrapbooking mum I am I made sure I took a heap of pictures Winking smile

All in all, Bega Stringers were a hit in our household and I think they are a yummy snack to have on hand. And they are giving Miss K some extra calcium. And I learnt a few useful hits while surfing the Bega site (like spraying your grater with a little oil to stop cheese sticking – well, why hadn’t I thought of that lol) and things like It takes 10 litres of milk to make just 1kg of cheese! and a Turophile is someone who love cheese.
