From the dishes you cook to the charcuterie trays you create, chances are you will find more cheese in people’s homes.

Cheese sales have been going up since more people are dining and entertaining at home. Food Business News says snack cheeses have seen the biggest growth with a 12 percent improvement over 2019-2020 sales at $148.2 million. Natural cheese sales were up as a whole 5.6 percent at $15.8 billion. Krohn Cheese Store retail manager Sally Vandermoss says they have seen more interest in their sharp cheeses.

Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin suggest the growth of Gen Z and millennial foodies using cheese to recreate comfort dishes and give new life to leftovers could further increase their sales in 2022.
