Woman Gifted 26lb Wheel of Cheese on a Date and People Say He's a Keeper On 4/15/21 at 6:54 AM EDT Men have been known to present their dates with bouquets of flowers, chocolates and even jewellery but one guy decided to buck the trend and opt for some cheese instead. But it wasn't your run-of-the-mill block of cheddar, after one woman was bemused to receive an entire truckle of cheese weighing a whopping 26 pounds (lbs). A woman, called Elizabeth, revealed her little sister had been out on a date with a farmer, and returned home with a giant wheel of cheese as a souvenir.
