Ocado is releasing a mint chocolate chip cheese in November

First we had spreadable pornstar martinis , and now we have spreadable ice cream… sort of.

Online supermarket Ocado has revealed they are releasing a mint chocolate chip cheese later this year, just in time for Christmas.

The Shirevale White Stilton Mint Choc Chip will retail at £4.99 for a block and will be released mid-November.

According to a statement: “This unusual cheese is made with pasteurised cows milk in the village of Cropwell Bishop, Leicestershire, by Shirevale: the only dedicated production site of White Stilton in the world.

“Unlike the typical aromatic blue variety, Shirevale’s White Stilton tastes clean and fresh, which makes it great for blending with unusual, exciting flavours. The Shirevale White Stilton Mint Choc Chip has a delicious, creamy and sweet dessert flavour.”

At Ocado’s recent Christmas showcase, our ES Best Editor Jessica Reynolds tried a piece of the cheese and said it tasted exactly like mint choc chip ice cream, the only difference being the texture and temperature.

The soft-textured, green-hued cheese has chunks of dark chocolate laced with delicate mint making this the perfect dessert cheese.

Looks like we'll be spreading this on everything this Christmas.
