A cheese roll may seem simple: it s
basically a slice of bread with cheese⁃based filling, rolled up and toasted until slightly crispy (松脆的). Yet these humble snacks hold a special place in the hearts of many people at the bottom of the South Island, the more southern of New Zealand s two main islands.
Margaret Peck remembers her first cheese roll. She was a teenager at the

of the South Island and New Zealand s southernmost city. Her husband Mark Peck remembers his first, too. It came after his arriving as a kid from Kentucky. “I d never had them before. And they were good! I got

According to professor Helen Leach,
a specialist in food anthropology (人类学)
at the University of Otago in Dunedin, the first recipes for a version of cheese rolls appeared in South Island cookbooks in the 1930s. They gained popularity in the
1950s and 1960s.

cheese roll will live on forever,” says Mark Heffer, who makes cheese rolls at his cafe in Invercargill. Hamilton adds, “I would
