Marge, I need your help! For years Kraft made a Limburger cheese spread. So long ago that my great grandfather used it. It was tradition in my family to spread it on rye bread and top it with a slice of sweet onion. We especially liked it during football games. Kraft no longer makes this spread. Do you happen to have something like it? Thank you. - Joe Dennis

Kraft stopped making this spread 2 years ago. I know that for a fact because my husband was also disappointed when they discontinued the product. We searched all of the grocery stores around here to buy the last jars.

This was one of those "you either like it or hate it " products. It is definitely an acquired taste.

To appease my husband I developed a similar tasting spread. It is not the exact item but if you enjoyed the Kraft products, you should enjoy this one. You have a choice of using butter or mayonnaise in this spread depending upon the consistency you prefer.

Just a note: This spread may offend the olfactory senses of some people.
