Mesophilic Culture

What is a mesophilic cheese culture?

Mesophilic culture is used in the making of cheese and is designed for making cheeses that get cooked at intermediate temperatures. Typically, they cannot withstand temperatures that exceed 102° F or 30° C and should only be used where the curds should not be heated above that temperature. Along with thermophilic cheese cultures, the mesophilic culture is one of the two primary and most commonly used cultures.

I’m thinking of the packages of cheese wedges (Laughing Cow), and also things like the cheese balls that come in holiday gift baskets. They don’t need to be refrigerated until the package is opened, then they do. Why is that?

I’m looking for one of those baskets that comes with an assortment or meat, cheese or bread. I don’t want to spend anymore than $30 on it, but want to make sure I get something decent. It doesn’t have to be a huge basket as it’s only for my boyfriend and me to share. Also, I think a basket with mostly cheese and bread or crackers would be more appropriate because my boyfriend does not eat pork and most have mainly sausage or ham.

I know Walmart and Target and places like that have a good price for these products, but I don’t know which brands I can trust. The best one I’ve ever had was one my friend had ordered online, unfortunately, I have no way of knowing or asking which site that was. Does anyone have an suggestions for a particular brand to search for and also any particular website or store that would have a good value on them?
Wow, Loretta Marie C!!! That’s really disturbing to think they would put stuff from last year back on the shelf. Food products like this, despite many having long expiration dates, tend to get stale fast. Thanks for the info.

Both good suggestions so far. I’d forgotten about Hill shire Farms. I’d have to find a good place that sells a wide variety of cheeses and meat in the area if I decided to make my own though. I’ve never actually been to Sam’s Club before. The nearest one if 30 mins away.
Opps, I meant Hickory Farms ;p

I made this chutney as a gift and want to put together a holiday gift basket as a gift, I am going to include some type of cheese to go along with it. Keep in mind that the people that are receiving this are probably not very familiar with or have acquired a taste for a wide range of cheeses. Thanks in advance for your help, I’m at a loss other than goat cheese.
