Title: Travelling with homemade cheese?
Post by: jennisheppard on November 19, 2016, 05:57:43 AM

Hi folks! I am going back from Canada to the UK for Christmas this year and I was hoping to take some homemade farmhouse cheddar with me, fully waxed, as a family gift. Is that allowed? Does anyone know? Many thanks for any advice or links you might have!

To update from a trip in March 2022, uk still doesn’t allow us to bring cheeses in. In case anyone was wondering about this still.
