 | | In the early 19th Century, Norwegian Cheese Makers, like their counterparts in the United States and a number of other countries, attempted to produce a domestic version of the increasingly popular Emmenthaler cheese from Switzerland. |
 | | This new cheese, later to be known as JARLSBERG, was named after Count Vadel Jarlsberg, whose estate was on the Oslo Fjord near where it was first manufactured. |
 | | Jarlsberg Lite, a reduced fat version of Classic Jarlsberg, was introduced into the U.S. in 1990 and has become the #1 Brand of imported, reduced fat cheese in the U.S. home |
