Cheddar-style cheeses:Cheddar is one of the most popular and widely copied cheeses in the world. Cheeses that are 'cheddared' undergo a step in the making process which involves them being cut into pieces and stacked and turned at the bottom of the cheese vat for a period. The archetypal Cheddar cheese is firmtextured, yellow in colour with a clean, mellow taste which develops a sharp and tangy bite the further it matures. English cheeses such as Gloucester, Cheshire, Leicester, Lancashire, Derby, Wensleydale and Caerphilly all belong to the Cheddar family. Even Stilton, a blue vein, is Cheddar based. America, Australia, Canada and New Zealand all make varieties of Cheddar in varying degrees of strength. Vermont is one of the best-known American types and the Canadian Cheddars, made from unpasteurised milk, are highly rated. Cantal is a French Cheddar-style cheese and Kashkaval is a distant Greek relative made from sheep's milk.

Like the first answer, Lancashier tends to be a white cheese and, most commonly, is crumbly. It can also be quite creamy, depending on who makes it. There are a number of small, farm based cheese makers who do Lancashire and I can heartily recommend it as a cheese type. Cheddar, which originated in the Cheddar area of Somerset in south west England (just in case you're not in the UK) is a firm yellow cheese. It sometimes has colour added to make it orange in colour, which makes it "red" Cheddar. There is no appellation controlee system on cheese in the UK, and so you can buy "Cheddar" cheese which is made in Australia, Canada, Ireland and various other places. It can range from being very mild to being very strong. However, if you buy a commercially produced cheese which says it's "extra strong" or "extra mature", you will quite often find that it is highly acidic and harsh on the palate. A quality, farmhouse Cheddar is always good, regardless of how strong it is supposed to be. Hope this helps.

Cheddar cheese is the most common and popular cheese of all. Most standard cheese sandwiches are made from Cheddar Cheese.
Lancashire cheese is one of my favourite cheeses(I am biased of course as I am Lancastrian). It is a white crumbly cheese,absolutely beautiful just to eat by the chunk but many people use it in cooking. Living in Scotland these days I find that Lancashire cheese does not travel well when bought from Supermarkets up here and I tend to buy it fresh locally whenever I am in the Red Rose County. Do try it!

Lancashire cheese is a white mild crumbly cheese, with a creamy taste, cheddar is a firm cheese varying in strength and quite a sharp tangy taste, depending on whether you have mild or mature cheddar! .

As different as chalk and cheese! Lancashire cheese is crumbly and has quite a sharp flavour, good on sandwiches with, piccalilli or slices of pickled onion, or on a ploughman's lunch. Cheddar cheese is firmer and good for cheese sauces - beware of imitations like Canadian Cheddar etc.

Cheddar cheese is creamy and can be slightly sweet in flavour. It's a solid hard cheese, and can be cream or orange in colour. Lancashire is creamy whilst being tangy and sometimes slightly sharp. It's creamy and light in colour, and crumbles like mad! Lancashire is the best in my opinions, but then I am biased, being a Lancashire lass.
