I buy the strawberry cream cheese a lot, but this time I got regular cc in a strawberry cc container. I'm probably not the only one either.
Hopefully, you can figure out what happened and fix it. Thanks.

Verified Reviewer |Large curd cottage cheese changes
Keep at it,,
What happened to your large curd cottage cheese?!?
The container was reduced by 25%, The price increased by 25%,
The consistancy of the large curd cc changed from firm, creamy, thick with large curds, to a soupy, runny mess that you can literally just pour out of the container!
The taste also is off, with a strange after taste that is nothing like the creamy deliciousness of the original. This all started when you switched to the smaller 24 ounce container. I could have stood for the size reduction however the runny, strange tasting slop you replaced it with is no good.
I waited and repurchased several times in hope it was just abad batch but alas, seems to be the new norm,,
Lost a customer,,
- Used to be the best dairy around
- Something has drastically changed different dairy taste is off
Preferred solution: The product made the way it was

Verified Reviewer |Safeway cheddar cheese
I have been a consumer of Safeway cheddar cheese for over 30 years. In the past few years, the old cheddar has become a creamy mess that has lost its flavor and texture.
What a disappointment.
Stopped baking your own bread, messed up your cheese, and pulled Lucerne sherbet. I have no reason to give them a penny again.
- Lucerne changed all there recipes without notification to there purchasers
Preferred solution: Apology
Bad lactose free 2% milk
Just bought Lucerne lactose free 2% milk in the half gallon container.
It tastes like it's contaminated with burnt black rubber. Has a sell by date of Sept.
21, 2025. Other markings are 16:59:72 0*-***. The "7" in the preceding is very hard to read and might be a different number.
It ruined my coffee and cereal. Never had a problem with Lucerne products before, but this is really bad!
User's recommendation: Make sure the milk tastes OK before using! Complain!

Verified ReviewerBad cheese sold at Albertsons . Representative for Albertsons and cheese out and out lied to me. Bad customer service
Making Rotel dip for a special occasion using Lucerne processed cheese. Ruined the dip.
Cheese would not melt. Cheese is not individually wrapped slices.
Frightening to think how this goo would harm our bodies. Products like this are a major cause of health problems in America being sold to trusting consumers.
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Be aware that this cheese does not melt. Very bad product

Verified ReviewerGross yogurt consistency, they refuse to respond to my email
Do you want yogurt that looks like this? No, I don't think so.
I emailed them about this 3 weeks ago and they refuse to even respond to it.
So I'm posting here instead. Keep companies accountable for their quality or they will keep getting away with it.
User's recommendation: Buy another brand. This company doesn't care about quality anymore.

Verified Reviewer |Multiple bitter experiences
You will not receive a refund even for completely spoiled food.Solution: don't buy Lucerne products, even tho they are cheaper.
We have had multiple packages of Lucerne cream cheese be horrifically spoiled (like something out of a horror movie) and multiple cartons of milk and cream also be spoiled upon opening. I've utterly lost patience with the brand, so we will not buy Lucerne products ever again. Absolutely not worth the slightly lower price.
- Cream cheese
- Routinely spoiled product- cream
- Milk
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: pick a different brand or you'll be sorry

Verified ReviewerFALSE / INCOMPLETE INFORMATION
Hello,
We bought your smoked Gouda cheese. The packaging says, "hickory smoked".
Nowhere does it say, "hickory smoke flavor added". I discovered the latter after making an internet search.
Why do you do imply via the packaging that the cheese is actually smoked? Thanks
Preferred solution: If they care about their customers they6 should reply to queries.
User's recommendation: Good cheeses, but according to Pissed Consumer, Lucerne received my query but decided not to act on it. Accurate descriptions on packaging matters. Hickory smoke FLAVORING isn't "hickory smoked".

Verified ReviewerMilk is horrible.
I bought this Lucerne half gallon of milk yesterday. I never buy this brand, but I decided to try this as the market didn't have the milk I buy every week.
I opened up the milk and poured a bowl of cereal.
I must admit this is the worst tasting milk I've ever tasted in my life. I will never buy this brand again.
- Horrible milk
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! (MILK)

Verified ReviewerPlease bring back the old Shredded Cheese Bags!!!!
The new shredded cheese bags are ridiculous! They cannot stand up, so even if you lean them against the wall of the fridge, which you should not need to do, you have to put something in front of it to keep it from slumping down.
The only logical choice then is to put them in a drawer, but that should NOT be the ONLY option.
Please bring back the bags that are able to stand up on their own. See the picture... see what a HUGE footprint your new bags take up?
See the bag next to it, able to stand and take up WAY less footprint space. Yeah, do that!
- Tasty cheese
- Stupid new bag
Preferred solution: The old shredded cheese bags back that are able to stand up on their own.
User's recommendation: Write to them and request the old bags that stand on their own
Bad milk
I bought milk for me to use at work.
I used it for sometime last week.
The smell kept on changing but nothing worrying.
Today I got back to work and I wanted to use it for my cereal
It was okay when I put it in the container.
When I was microwaving I sensed a very bad smell.
I thought maybe someone microwaved smelly food previous day.
Boy i was wrong.
It was the milk.
It transitioned from normal text to yogurt texture.
It smells so bad like rotten eggs.
It has not expired yet
User's recommendation: Nope. It’s my last time drinking this. I will just enjoy the cheese
32 oz, isn't 32 oz of product.
I bought a 32 oz. container of Lucern Plain Non Dat Yogurt.
They're want 32 oz. of Yogurt. I used to get 4 8 oz. bowls of yogurt, now I get a little over 3.
Your charging the same for less. Yes it's a pisser.

Verified ReviewerComplaint about Lucerne Cottage Cheese
Never heard from anyone.
I just purchased a 24 oz container of Lucerne Cottage Cheese. Most companies either raise their prices or sneak in a container smaller in size.
I'm angry that Lucerne has done BOTH for this product; smaller size and larger price. That's a pretty despicable act on your part.
When the opportunity presents itself, I will buy a competitive manufacturer even if their price may be a bit higher. At least their business practices do not stoop as low as Lucerne.
- Formerly fair pricing
- Lower quality
Preferred solution: Raise the price OR use smaller packaging, not both.
User's recommendation: Beware deceptively smaller container of Lucerne products coupled with increase in price.
Yogurt changed
For the last few months, their large tubs of strawberry yogurt are disgustingly thick, not their usual creamy yogurt.

Yep, I emailed them about this with pictures nearly 3 weeks ago and they have sent no response. Terrible company with low-quality products now. Shame.
