Cartoon peeps who love cheese

Now that you’ve had one of your family days out this year at the recent cheese festival in Cardiff, what famous cartoon characters would you expect to see there if of course they were real people?

Wallace from the popular Wallace and Gromit

Everybody knows this British guy.This toon inventor has big ears to match his huge love for cheese. His personal cheese of choice, well it has to be Wensleydale.Of course the first time we laid eyes on the pair was way back in 1989 in the film A Grand Day Out in which the pair actually travel to the moon as they realise they have run out of the best food ever- cheese. Gromit, being the smarter of the two would have found it easier to go to the shops but of course he cannot talk being a dog (yet he is very good at being sarcastic).

The brilliant laughing cow

Simply here because it has become a world wide sensation and is actually the oldest on the list as the original drawing for the product was drawn by the creator of the product in 1924 and was the first cheese product to actually be branded in France.

Jerry the mouse

This one is even more famous than the last and the love for cheese comes quite simply because all cartoon mice love cheese. Surely everyone knows what this one is about. The hatred that a cat and mouse have for eachother is shown with the never ending battle Tom and Jerry have. Back in the days these cartoons used to contain comic violence but with the way the world is now have since been toned down by quite a lot in recent years.

So if you fancy yourself a bit of cheese why not go to a cheese festival and try a variety of cheeses. UK family holidays can really be worked around all kinds of festivals from cheese to music.
