Thank you very much to Messrs. Olson and Cramer for your suggestions =
which lead me to  more solid information of Saga Blue cheese.  For the =
benefit of others interested on Saga cheese, here's the scoop:

Saga cheese was invented in Denmark by the Dairy company "Tholstrup".  =
For many years they ex****ted their cheeses to Germany, Sweden, France, =
and other European countries, with about 8 % of the production coming to =
the US.  It was distributed by Norseland dairy products.  A few years =
ago Tholstruo bought a small cheese company in the US where they =
manufactured other Tholstrups products, A year ago Tholstrup sold the =
cheese production (at least) to Arial foods, another huge european food =
company.  It seems that the Saga that we find today in the US is made in =
Michigan.  Therefore this possibly explains why long time consumers of =
Saga cheese find  taste differences between the im****ted Saga and the US =
version.  It is not clear to me whether any amount of the Denmark made =
cheese is still available in US.

  Dear Mr. Olson:

  May be you can help me with this:  I have been enjoying Saga Blue =
cheese for many years.  Recently I have notices a slight change of taste =
in the slices I by.  I notices that these slices now say it were made in =
"Michigan", not in Denmark as I thought.
  Was Saga Bleu ever made in Denmark?  What's the story/
  Thank you very much,
  Walter
