Officers found the vehicle was 41% over its weight limit, in Sawtry, Cambridgeshire on Monday.
The driver was left in a pickle as the van had 2,822lb (1,280kg) more cheese than it was allowed to carry. Officers said it had to be “removed or eaten”.
During a grilling, the driver was allowed to take some of the dairy produce away but made to call in another van to take the excess.
