Jason26 Posted January 17 #1 Share Posted January 17 Currently on the Silhouette, 10 night Southern Caribbean. Well into day 3 and I’ve noticed there is no shredded cheese on the salad buffet. Is anyone aware of a cheese shortage? Are cows on strike? Jason 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare lv2cruisgrl Posted January 17 #6 Share Posted January 17 (edited) I did notice on Beyond last year very little shredded cheese on the buffet. I assumed it was just another cutback. I love cheese on my salad but I figured they were saving me calories. So I got 2 desserts instead of 1.

Jason Grab one of those bosses walking around with the button down shirts, and they will get you some, unless they have zero onboard. Ask the crew member who is working that station...Don't be shy... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrgabriel Posted January 17 #8 Share Posted January 17 Maybe we can have a case of cheese shredders shipped to X HQ? 😂 Seriously, if there’s no shredded cheese, take a chunk of cheese and cut it into cubes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of cheese. All sizes and varieties. On one cruise, I saw no blue cheese. I actually asked for some from a staff member rather than writing to Cruise Critic. And guess what? Blue cheese was brought out. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason26 Posted January 18 Author #16 Share Posted January 18 Okay……… Thinking how to respond here. 90% of my comments were in jest with a very small amount being serious, “cutting the cheese”. That said, there is no cubed cheese, only liquid cheese in the Mexican section, grated Parmesan, cheese for the pizzas and feta. Nothing else is available. Just making a funny comment and an observation. Take it for what it’s worth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a small cheese grater for parmesan cheese has a little wheel inside with a crank that you turn. Hate powdered cheese. Never seen a grater onboard.

Hate powdered cheese. Never seen a grater onboard. I like those as well. But I was referring to one in the galley so Celebrity could shred some cheddar off the blocks they already have. It seems like asking for some shredded cheese on a salad is a very reasonable request by a passenger. That's been a staple on every salad bar I can recall seeing.

Rare CruiserKris34 Posted January 22 #24 Share Posted January 22 This is hilarious! We were on Apex last week & my husband said he couldn't find the shredded cheese for the salad bar. No, he didn't ask LOL. 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
