Gloucester cheese is a traditional, semi-hard cheese with its origins in England. Single gloucester cheese is crumbly and lighter in texture whereas double gloucester cheese is allowed to age for a longer period of time, making it harder.

However, it is advisable to consult your doctor before having gloucester cheese while you are expecting.
