Woman carded for cheese


A woman in the UK was upset when a grocery store clerk carded her for cheese.

Hannah Craig, a researcher at England's Leeds University, said she thought the woman working at the checkout counter was joking when she asked to see proof that she was old enough to buy the whiskey-flavored cheddar, The Sun reported Monday.

"The assistant said she needed to see my ID to prove I was 18 to buy it. I thought it was a practical joke," Craig said. "She was quite embarrassed about it but insisted. Luckily I had my passport with me."

She criticized the store for requiring identification for cheese and I agree. It's not like cheese is going to get you drunk.

I bet it's delicious though. Mmmm cheese
