Begin your year-long treat with Peelable Cheese
Imagine receiving a delicious wedge of cheese on a regular basis. Imagine no more because once you sign up to the Firebox Cheese Club we’ll deliver a different portion of fresh fromage to your doorstep every month for a year. Cheese? Yes please!
We’re talking hefty wedges here, not the piddly portions you get in supermarkets. It’s every off-milk connoisseur's dream! Collect all twelve and you can admire each one (before dissecting and scoffing it) on our complimentary cheese board.*
There's nothing like the taste of Cottage Cheese
If you’re a fan of gourmet cheese you’re in for a treat as we’ll surprise you every time: Red Leicester, Mild Cheddar, Cottage Cheese – we’ll even dispatch a bonus bag of foil-wrapped triangles, some peelable strings in cellophane and a cheese knife complete with Swiss-style holey handle. Cutting the cheese has never been so fulfilling!

I am so disappointed this is an April fool joke.
I was already clearing a space on my dining room table for an bounty of dairy products.
It seems I'll have to cancel my subscription to Jacobs crackers too. SteveJ, Stevenage - 1st April 2011
When I saw this item was available, I was very excited, as I consider myself something of a connoisseur when it comes to the old udder-lard.
I have hosted several very successful cheese & wine parties, and am becoming quite well known as the local "Cheespert"! At my last cheese & wine 'do', I even introduced the novel concept of putting my cheese cubes on sticks, to allow easy recovery from the wine glass, rather than having to go through the undignified rigmarole of fishing the cheese out from the bottom of the glass with one's fingers (I have some quite large-fingered friends, and a lot of my white carpet is now stained with red wine - if only I'd thought of the sticks idea earlier!!!).
Imagine my disappointment, then, when I read the list of cheeses you provide! Where is the White Mild? The Squeezy Tube?
You've missed the perfect opportunity to provide exclusive foreign cheese imports! Long have I yearned to sample the "spray-cheese" phenomenon of the Americas, and I'm sure I'm not alone. This demand is the sort of thing any cheese club worth its saltine (forgive the pun) would take note of.
The cheeses (Cheesi, to give the correct latin plural) you provide range from the foolishly niche (Wenslydale with cranberries??? It's well known that adding fruit to whey causes a dangerous chemical reaction, with chlorine gas as but one of its potentially fatal by-products! And Danish Blue??!!? Cheese is yellow by definition!!!) to the ridiculously banal (who hasn't grown peelable cheese on damp paper towels as a science experiment in primary school, after all?).
Shame on you, Firebox! Shame on you for this flammery! Laurie Pink, Manchester - 1st April 2010
Firebox says: You love Cheese you do.
What an inspiring idea! Week after week I am forced to mingle with the minions in the local 'super' market to purchase my portion of cheese delight, now it can be delivered to my mansions door, providing the three labradors and gardener don't get to it first! Hurray, no more queuing at the checkout for me! V W Burlington-Smythe, Chalmondly Warner - 1st April 2010
Cant imagine anything better than a huge wedge of cheese first thing in the morning. Cheesington Hex, Cheshire - 1st April 2010
Excellent idea for dinner parties! I have just ordered one, can't wait to get my hands on the triangles and peelable cheese!! bargain price too! Cheese Lover, Manchester - 1st April 2010
Mmmm.... Cheeeese. Emma, Rochdale - 1st April 2010
