    A Memorial Day table setting that looks ALMOST as good as the food sitting on it.

  • Friends of Elsie at 2:00pm, May 22

    With Memorial Day weekend so close you can taste it, we thought it might be a good idea to share some DOs and DON’Ts all good grill masters should abide by. (view photo)

    Just had your Applewood Bacon Cheddar slices on some grilled burgers..... OMG!!! AMAZING! Thank you so much!

    During summertime, which is your family’s favorite place to spend your days? The beach, lake or pool? (view photo)

    I need to find your pepperjack single wrapped cheese....walmart used to carry it but they no longer do...I live near Butler Pa and need know if any stores around here sells it

      Hi Mary - would you mind sending us a private message with your contact information? We will do some digging for you.

    National Pick Strawberries Day? Don’t mind if we do. What’s your favorite summertime fruit? (view photo)

    This obscure holiday is probably a hit with whoever is on dish duty at your house. No Dirty Dishes Day? No problem, we say! (view photo)

    • Trisha Restall at 10:15am, May 18

      What 'obscure holiday'? Armed Forces Day? The day honoring our brave military members? Is that the 'obscure holiday' you're talking about? It's well celebrated at my house!

    • Friends of Elsie at 12:51pm, May 18

      Trisha, we can assure you that Armed Forces Day is not an obscure holiday in our mind. We support and thank the many brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our county. It just so happens that this year “No Dirty Dishes Day” falls on the same date. This is the holiday we were referencing in our post.

    Good luck to all the students preparing for end-of-year tests, projects and papers. We think you’ll do just fine, because you’re sharp – sharp like cheddar.

    • Miguel Orama at 9:56am, May 17

      hopefully they all ate their borden cheese and pass all their test..

    Regarding baseball, we’d rather get a Single (or two) than a home run. (view photo)

    We love this summer craft idea for when the family returns from vacation! This is about the closest you can get to trapping your memories in a jar.

      Could someone from Borden tell us how to purchase Borden lactose free cheese slices? No stores carry the product any more!

    • Friends of Elsie at 12:47pm, May 16

      Hi Jason - would you send us a direct message with your location, as well as contact information? Once we know where you are, we can start looking into this for you. Thanks!

    Here’s a tip for those of you watching your sodium intake: Look for softer, less-aged cheeses, like Swiss or Monterey Jack. These require less salt than harder, aged types of cheese. (view photo)

    Are your products GMO free?????

    • Friends of Elsie at 3:37pm, May 14

      Hey, Amber - Thanks for your question. Borden cheese is manufactured using the milk of our dairy farmer members and derivatives of that milk, which contain microbial enzymes. If there is a specific product you would like additional information about, please email us at Borden@FriendsOfElsie.com.

      yes, the early bird gets the cheese, but if you do not hurry then the mouse gets it first...

    As far as we’re concerned, Friday night is Pizza Night. Besides Borden Shredded 2% Mozzarella, what are your favorite toppings to pile on your homemade pizza? (view photo)

    With grilling season about to be primetime, we need to settle an important debate: hot dogs or burgers? Go! (view photo)

    The classic combination of cheese and crackers is a winner, yes – but what KIND of cracker? If you’re a particular person when it comes to your cracker pairing, please let us know your preference below.

    • Miguel Orama at 1:23pm, May 8

      For me any kind as long as its borden cheese
