Cheese is a staple item on most shopping lists in the UK. In fact, experts have said that cheese is bought by 98% of UK households, with the average Brit eating 30g a day - and for Rebecca Astill, it's no different.
According to the Birmingham Live reporter, if you asked her when she was younger what her favourite food was, the answer "would always be cheese. Cheddar, Emmental, red Leicester, brie, Camembert, mozzarella, you name it, I loved it."
And whilst there are hundreds of varieties of cheeses, there is one clear favourite: cheddar. Cheddar is, by far, the most popular cheese in the UK, with sales of this particular cheese accounting for about half of sales.
