Yemeni cheese also known as Taiz cheese and known in Yemen as "local cheese" (Jubn Baladi), is a type of Yemeni cheese that is produced in rural areas of Yemen most famously in Taiz Governorate which is why it is known as Taizz cheese although other local names are given based on the region or the village the cheese was produced.[1] Visitors to Taiz city usually buy the Taiz cheese in al-Bab al-Kabeer and Bab Musa markets as gifts for their families.[2] The production of the Taiz cheese has not been affected by the production of processed cheese because most Yemenis still prefer the local cheese.[2][3]
