Who Cut the Cheese?

Actually, the Judges cut the cheese!

21 Wisconsin cheeses make final round in world championship contest

Wisconsin cheese makers produced 21 of thetop78cheeses that will compete Thursday in the final round of the 2010World Championship Cheese Contest in Madison, giving America's Dairyland a strong shot at the world title.

Check with JSOnline for the complete article.

A place I like to go to get cheese and many other good things is Tenuta’s Deli in Kenosha. To bad Racine does not have a store like this, but then I guess we have bakeries.

I found the best cheese is bought from farmers up north. I don't like cheese but the curds are tasty and squeeky. Love them (from un north tho).

There is never a legitimate excuse to go Kraft, woman:

Tenuta's in Kenosha is great. I love their outdoor grilling in the summer. A buddy and I used to drive there once a week just to get a brat or Italian sausage.

Beejay, if you try hennings, you have to try the heritage white cheddar with garlic and dill; it is to die for!

Orbs, maybe a brat at tenuta's for an informal, mini get-together this summer? Let's keep coming up with (excuses) reasons to plan....

Wait, I had some Heritage Cheese...my niece must have sent it to me....I love my WI cheese...but Grandma eats it all up...I tried hiding it at the back of the top shelf of the refrigerator....this little old lady with osteoporosis (who can't reach anything in a cabinet or close a cabinet door) managed to get to it and eat it.....

So okay, I'll go to those sites and order my own cheese....wimper, wimper, whine, whine....

I've never been to Tenutas, I think this calls for a field trip!

Henning's is AWESOME! I buy their cheese curds often. The salami cheddar is to die for! I'll go though a whole brick in a few hours.

Never been to Tenuta's. I gotta try that place...

Out of Wisconsin cheese? Well it's your own darn fault for moving down to Floriday BeeJay!

Tenuta's is also across the street from Ron's Place, which has great pub food. I've taken a number of friends there.

I love Tenuta's....one of the places I miss down here.

I got a box of WI Cheese today...I'm in heaven....no more whining out of me for at least two weeks...tee-hee.....

Beejay said...

Oh, I'll think of you on Sunday, when I'm having a picnic with wine (not whine, mind you) and cheese on the beach! ;)
