Tillamook Sharp Yellow Cheddar: It's a Cheddarbration!

Sunday, February 13th, 2022 may quite literally be the Cheesiest Day Ever when National Cheddar Day and the Big Game collide. Add in the return of the Mother Loaf, a 40-pound block of Tillamook Sharp Yellow Cheddar, and a drop of the most cheddar-friendly merch, and February 13th will truly be a Sunday Funday like no other. Whether you're celebrating as a party of one or with your party pod, Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA) is inviting everyone to join in the Cheddarbration and to get in the spirit by watching our shoppable Music Video, made in partnership with creative agency 72andSunny Los Angeles. In addition to the Mother Loaf in all its glory, beginning on February 1st, the Tillamook Shop will offer a host of bold, fashion-forward, limited-run swag that can turn any moment into a Cheddarbration. Created by the women-owned Portland Garment Factory, a leader in soft-goods innovation, the cheddar-inspired apparel and accessories are designed to help you literally bring your favourite cheddar wherever you go. It's well-documented that Cheddar is America's favourite cheese. And, Americans aren't shy about it, eating nearly 90 million pounds of cheese during Big Game parties every year. In honour of this cheddar convergence, let's touchdown on how TCCA makes its award-winning Tillamook Cheddars. All Tillamook Cheddar starts its journey as a 40-pound block that is naturally aged, unlike the massive 640-pound blocks that some of our competitors use, so you can count on cheddar with perfect, bold flavour in every bite. Once the bold Cheddar flavour that Tillamook products are known for is just right, that's when it becomes a Tillamook block, bag of shreds, or thick-cut slices, as literal chips off the old Mother Loaf block.
