The 5 Best Cheeses at Aldi, According to Customers

There’s nothing I love more than cheese—whether it’s the creamy melt of mozzarella, the tangy bite of sharp Cheddar, or the smooth richness of goat cheese. Cheese has a way of making everything better, from snacks to gourmet dishes, and Aldi’s top picks this year are no exception.

These five crowd-pleasing cheeses have stolen the hearts (and taste buds) of Aldi shoppers. They just so happen to be the most popular cheeses of the year for 2024, which means these logs, blocks and cubes ended up in customers’ carts over and over again. Whether you’re crafting a cheesy masterpiece or snacking straight from the fridge, these favorites deliver flavor, convenience and versatility like no other.

Sharp Cheddar

$1.89 per 8-ounce block

Sharp Cheddar is a well-deserved favorite among Aldi shoppers, and it’s easy to see why. Its bold, tangy flavor makes it the perfect addition to nearly any dish. Whether it’s grated into a comforting casserole like our Loaded Cauliflower Casserole, melted over a sizzling burger or simply enjoyed with crackers, this cheddar brings a rich, full-bodied taste that elevates every meal. For those who crave bold flavors and endless versatility, sharp Cheddar is always a winning choice. Its punchy profile and ability to enhance dishes make it a standout in the cheese aisle.

Low-Moisture, Part Skim Mozzarella

$1.89 per 8-ounce block

Mozzarella is the classic cheese that never goes out of style. Known for its unbeatable meltability, it’s a must-have for pizza nights, baked pastas, and cheesy casseroles. Try it in our Mozzarella-Stuffed Turkey Burgers for a pull-worthy, cheesy bite that’s impossible to resist. But mozzarella is more than just a melting cheese—buy it fresh, and it’s just as tasty sliced with ripe tomatoes and basil in a caprese salad. (Still, we love the low-moisture version in classic recipes like our Veggie Lasagna.)

Whether you’re craving something simple or sophisticated, mozzarella delivers a satisfying, melt-in-your-mouth experience every time. It’s the ultimate cheese to keep stocked in your fridge for everything from casual meals to elegant appetizers.

Goat Cheese Logs

$1.79 per 4-ounce log

For those moments when you want to add a little extra flair to your meal, Aldi’s goat cheese logs are the perfect choice. With their creamy texture and tangy bite, they bring an air of sophistication to any dish. Whether you’re crumbling them over a fresh salad, spreading them on warm, crusty baguette slices or pairing them with something sweet, like in our Fig & Goat Cheese Puff Pastry Roll, this cheese elevates every bite. Versatile and luxurious, goat cheese logs are your secret ingredient for transforming ordinary meals into something special. They’re perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself to something a little celebratory.

Monterey Jack

$1.89 per 8-ounce block

Monterey Jack is the laid-back cheese that fits in wherever it’s needed. Creamy, smooth and slightly nutty, it strikes the perfect balance between mild flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture. Whether it’s lending its magic to a sizzling quesadilla like our Bacon Chard Quesadillas, topping off a stack of nachos, or blending seamlessly into a casserole, Monterey Jack is always up for the task. It’s equally impressive on a snack plate, pairing effortlessly with crackers, apples or even a dollop of jam. 

Underrated but irreplaceable, this cheese proves that sometimes the quietest player is the most versatile. Whether you’re making a quick lunch or prepping a weeknight dinner, Monterey Jack is always ready to shine. We’d recommend starting with our Cheesy Chicken & White Bean Skillet if you pick up a block.

Mild Cheddar Cubes

$2.19 per 8-ounce bag of cubes

Humble mild Cheddar cubes are proof that simple can be spectacular. Perfectly pre-cut for snacking ease, these little bites are the ultimate grab-and-go cheese. Creamy and mellow, they’re a hit with kids, picky eaters and anyone who needs a quick boost between meetings or errands. Pair them with apple slices, toss them into salads like our Fall Chopped Salad with Spinach, Butternut Squash, Apples & Cheddar or enjoy them as is—no frills, no fuss, just cheesy goodness.
