HistoryThe cheese was originally made on farms in Leicestershire with milk that was surplus, after all the Stilton desired was made. It was originally coloured with carrot or beet juice. The true fat content of Red Leicester cheese is between 33 and 34%. Regulations about cheese serve to confuse because they quote minimum fat levels in terms of the "fat in dry matter" or "fdm". Take out the moisture and you are left with fat, protein, minerals, vitamins and salt - the fdm measures the amountof fat in this dry matter, excluding the water. So although the minimum fdm for Red leicester is, as stated, correct at 48% this equates to a true fat content in the final product of around 33 to 34%.

Unit Posted 24 October 2007 Posted 24 October 2007 I just get annoyed when on holiday and asked where i'm from (by an english person) I say leicester and they say "oh a northerner!".... Yes we're further north than say...London, but we're not Northern
Rincewind Posted 24 October 2007 Posted 24 October 2007 We would also be a sotherner to anyone living in Newcastle. I don't make a big issue out of it if anyones says 'you'ree a northerner or southerner.' I reply 'well whilst I agree Leicester is north/south from where you are at present, on the UK map we are more central' I go away satisfied that I have educated one more person in geography.
