Delta is partnering with Tillamook to bring the taste of the Pacific Northwest to customers at 30,000 feet. The farmer-owned, award-winning co-op from Oregon will showcase three of its cheeses — Smoked Medium Cheddar, Pepper Jack and Sharp White Cheddar — in a new co-branded Cheese & Fruit box that will be featured on the airline’s Flight Fuel menu as well as on select coast-to-coast flights that offer free Main Cabin meals.
Founded in 1909 as a farmer-owned cooperative, Tillamook prides itself on its commitment to bringing to market the most consistent, best tasting, highest quality dairy products made in the most natural way possible. Guided by the belief that everyone deserves real food that makes them feel good every day, they have earned top awards for their cheese, ice cream, sour cream, butter and yogurt products made the Tillamook Way.
