What it is
Theo's Feta Crumbles are a pre-crumbled, brined cheese made from sheep's milk. This cheese is known for its distinct salty flavor and crumbly texture, making it a convenient option for various culinary applications. It is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine, often enjoyed for its tangy profile and ability to enhance both savory and sometimes sweet dishes. The brining process contributes to its characteristic taste and helps preserve its freshness.
