Last year we brought back tulip bulbs for everyone, this year we were thinking maybe some cheese.
Just wondering if anyone knows offhand if
- is dutch cheese a better deal than your home
- is there a good place to buy it in Amsterdam, i know there is that cheese market town, but we wont be going there.

Not sure Pauli, none too strict though, customs did not bat an eye at 40 tulip bulbs.

There is a cheese market in Alkmaar, every Friday.

I know it is in Alkmaar but it is worth the ride.

Cheese in Netherlands is 25% of what the cost is in Canada, and far superior.

Dunno about import restrictions tho..
