A Cheese House With Cows Outside
Happened to stop in, per my usual whenever I spot a cheese shop while traveling Wisconsin, and found the quant Colonial Cheese House in Wautoma. Hard to miss what with the beautiful ceramic cows out front. Of course what I really dug about the place, besides the cheese, was the Cheesehead memorabilia for sale, including … Continue reading
Bobby Nelson Cheese Shop – The Little Shop That Could
Kenosha has more than its share of cheese shops, and while the more well known is the Mar’s Cheese Castle, a lesser known but just as unique cheese shop is right up the street, the Bobby Nelson Cheese Shop.

Colby From Colby Is The Best Colby
It was a dreary day when I went to Colby, but it is the birthplace of Colby cheese, so it deserves some props. Colby is always best when it is Longhorn style (in my opinion). The town, a quant little village in the middle of the state, was cozy and pleasant, with reminders here and … Continue reading

Genuine Wisconsin Cheese Curds Imported For Rose Bowl

Wisconsin Cheese Curds In California
Seems as though my old stomping grounds in Orange County (California) is rife with good taste. I found these Ellsworth Cooperative Creamery cheese curds from Wisconsin in a Sprouts chain (sort of a Whole Foods, but nowhere near the price gouger) of gorcery and health food stores. They also had Henning’s chipotle cheddar there (Henning’s … Continue reading
If Frank Lloyd Wright Had Designed A Cheese Haus…
If Frank Lloyd Wright had designed a Cheese Haus it would have been Foster Cheese Haus in Osseo (just south of Eau Claire off of I94). They have some amazing cool Wisconsin Cheese as well, including bacon infused cheese curds like I’ve not seen anywhere else. Not only do they have great Wisconsin Cheese, but … Continue reading
Recently Discovered 40-Year-Old Wisconsin Cheddar
When Edward Zahn decided in May to close his cheese shop in Oconto, he made a discovery that is going to drive cheese lovers more bonkers than the 15-year-old cheddar released by Hook’s Cheese in Mineral Point in 2009.

Where Antiques & Cheese Come Together
Tim and Tom’s Cheese shop is located just outside of Kenosha, right off the freeway a few miles away from Mars Cheese Castle, but it’s a world of difference from the Castle filled with cheese because it also offers up an awesome variety of antiques and unique items for sale. Lots of collectables, old liscense … Continue reading
