English Cow in Morocco


I have received this from John (the UK) some time ago, but I have never seen that they sell this flavour in Morocco. What amazes me the most is the name in English (and only in English).

They have added a label in Arabic on the back. I guess it is compulsory if you want to sell this here.

Creamy Spicy Pepper Jack


Send by Phillip (the USA). I am glad to add a new flavour to the list!

On the back, a funny letter written in round:



In the same envelope, and interesting folded card celebrating the Year of the Ox (2009):




And still more...

Extra Light

Sent by John (the UK)

I am glad to add another variety to my collection. I have never seen this before. It seems that the number of calories is decreasing and decreasing...

What an envelope!


How many cows can you count on this non-birthday packet sent by John (the UK)? I wonder how it arrived with all the stickers in their place.

Oh, and wait: you have not seen the back yet!


I enjoyed some details:





You Make Me Smile!

Sent by John (the UK)

I like the sticker. I guess Pony Brown has just bought some boxes of cheese...

Stampfree VQR

Big envelope sent by John (the UK)

It seems that the sender put the stamps and they were postmarked... and then lost in way (?). The back:

Less light

From Keith (the USA)
Again I cannot understand: 
a) The subtle differences between light and less fat (yes, 10 calories, but...). So is there a light cheese less light?
b) Why they add mozzarella to cheese wedges? Is not mozarella a cheese itself?!?


The sender included some labels:

VQR truck & old VQR

Sent by John (the UK)

Collage made by John. He added in the back the picture of the old boxes. The cow was slightly different, the portions were just 6 in each box (so bigger!) and what I love is specially the slogan: Bel et Bon (='Beautiful and good', but Bel is also the name of the brand).


Ah, and don't forget to look at these cowstamps!



Does the VQR,,,?



What do you think? The VQR eat VQR cheese as snack? Does it sound a bit... odd?



Party Cubes

Sent by Lilli (Canada)

I have never seen this cubes before. It seems that triangles are starting to become out of fashion...


How many flavours...? (2)



  • Classic cream (with a 3/4 less fat version)
  • Strawberries and cream
  • Cinnamon cream
  • Garden vegetable
And all these new varieties have 45 calories par wedge, but I do not know whether it is little or much...

I'm sure they have even more! And what if you want to eat a plain triangle of VQR?!?

How many flavours...? (1)

Did you realise how many flavours (or flavors) they offer in the USA? It is amazing!



  • Babybel original
  • Babybel light
  • Mozzarella, Sun-Dried Tomato & Basil
  • Garlic & Herbs
  • Queso Fresco & Chipotle (queso means 'cheese' in Spanish, so I find this flavour specially interesting).

What is my secret?

These bilingual cards were inside Canadian VQR boxes. I feel disappointed when I realised they contained just recipes, and not the VQR secret announced (if there is one VQR secret...).
