To make a delicious sandwich, you need high-quality meat, delicious bread, and fresh veggies. But also, don’t make cheese an afterthought. The wrong cheese can ruin a sandwich. Luckily, you can buy some seriously delicious deli cheese at your local grocery store. What brands slice the most delicious cheeses? Here are 5 deli counter cheeses, according to shoppers.
Boar’s Head

Boar’s Head doesn’t just make high-quality deli meats. They also make premium sliced cheeses. “The best cheeses in my opinion are: Havarti Dill > Picante Provolone > Fontina > Horseradish Cheddar > Havarti Cream > Black Wax Yellow Cheddar > Caramelized Onion Jack,” a Redditor says.
Tillamook

Tillamook’s rich, creamy Oregon cheeses are almost as famous as the creamery’s ice cream. “When it comes to cheese, I’m a fan of Tillamook,” says a Redditor. “Try the extra sharp white cheddar (in the black package). For grocery store cheese it’s really good!”
Land O’Lakes

Land O’Lakes ultra smooth American cheese is a classic. “If you’re in the US, try American Cheese from the deli counter. It usually comes in white or yellow, but they’re the same thing. Land O lakes makes an excellent one and it’s often pretty cheap,” says a Redditor.
Dietz & Watson

Dietz & Watson is another artisan deli brand that is just as reliable for cheese as it is for meat. Two of the most popular varieties are the Creamy White American, with a smooth texture, rich taste, and exceptional melting for hot sandwiches, and the Imported Swiss, which features classic eye formation, a mild taste, and a pleasant, nutty finish.
