BREXIT TALKS ARE resuming in Brussels today, with a lot of speculation about whether a trade deal can be done in time for the end of the transition period on 1 January.

But although it’s not clear what’ll happen by the end of the month, some are already making contingencies.

Today, we report that a cheese facility in Kilkenny is hoping to diversify Ireland’s cheese production as part of a post-Brexit strategy.

The new factory will make edam and gouda cheese, adding to what is a considerable output of cheddar.

But today we’re asking: What is the best type of cheese?

Poll Results:

Cheddar (6933)

Other (2039)

Brie (2034)

Mozzarella (1132)

Gouda (661)

Halloumi (553)

Edam (456)
