Discover how to score gourmet cheese at a fraction of the price at Whole Foods

When you're buying a variety of cheeses for a party, it’s easy to spend more than you intended. Often, only one or two varieties get eaten, leaving the rest sitting in your fridge—unused and forgotten.

Fortunately, Whole Foods has an insider secret: a clearance section where you can score smaller, uniquely shaped cheese pieces at surprisingly low prices.

Our Secret to Finding Affordable Cheese at Whole Foods

At Whole Foods, you'll find a basket of leftover cheese bits that have been trimmed from larger blocks. Rather than wasting these tasty scraps, the store packages and sells them at a steep discount.

It's a great way to explore new cheeses without worrying about leftovers that no one will eat. I recommend getting a couple of crowd favorites in larger blocks, and then filling out your cheese board with smaller, less common varieties for people to sample.

Next time you're looking for quality cheese at a budget-friendly price, Whole Foods is your go-to destination for tasty and affordable selections.
