Mennonite Farmer Cheese

Photo coming soon
Much of this cheese comes from Spanish Lookout, a Mennonite farming community in Cayo that is also a major supplier of Belize's chicken, eggs and dairy.
A firm, mild white cheese made using traditional Mennonite methods on small family dairies. It's sold from coolers and farm stands along Cayo's highways, often alongside fresh milk and baked goods.
Why it's made this way: Cayo is home to Spanish Lookout, one of Belize's largest Mennonite settlements, whose dairy traditions have made this cheese a familiar roadside product in the district.
