Abstract

Each year in the State of Utah, thousands of pounds of a number of varieties of bulk and packaged cheese are returned to the manufacturing plants from the stores and other distribution points. The main reasons are: broken wrapper or rind, crushed or otherwise mutilated package, and mold development.

At the present time much of this cheese is shipped out of the state for processing. The remainder is sold at drastically reduced prices. If this unmarketable returned cheese were changed in form with good consumer acceptance the industry would experience a real savings.
