Merger Proposal[edit]

I think this should be merged with the article 'Port-Salut cheese', since they describe exactly the same cheese.

Not *exactly* the same cheese; Port Salut is the trade name for one particular (and distinctive) brand, while Port-du-Salut is the generic term for all cheeses of this particular region/type.

I agree that the pages should be merged, since the content is so similar. Also, I think it would be more beneficial to have the information in one page, since the information I was looking for was not in the page on which I expected it to be. Lithium (talk) 14:09, 4 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The information in the second half of this entry is copied word-for-word from the Gourmet Cheese of the Month Club entry on Port-du-Salut, without any sourcing. JMHX 02:28, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this should be merged.

I'm doing a project on cheeses for my French class, and there is absolutely no difference between Porte-Salut and Porte-du-Salut. They taste the same, are from the same place, and are made from the same ingredients. ___________________________________________________________________________

Port Salut and Port-du-Salut are NOT the same cheese. Part Salut is a mass produced and very low quality take on the tradition monastery cheese Port-du-Salut. Port-du-Salut is a very complex washed rind cheese where as Port Salut is a very boring cheese with an artificial orange rind added to make it look more like Port-du-Salut.
