Random Wisconsin Cheese Things…
Rna across several photos of random Wisconsin Cheese Things that actually have on a smidgen to do with cheese and thought it would be fun to share. Seems like we’ll put the word CHEESE on nearly anything to get people’s attention, and probably because it works. After all, I took these photos didn’t I… * … 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. In the back of his walk-in cooler, Zahn, 73, found several wooden boxes of cheddar … Continue reading
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.

Once inside, however, this seeming rustic place becomes a world of unique and interesting shops, stands, and a wine … Continue reading
The Quaint Little Humbird Cheese Shop In Tomah
While driving down I-94 heading to Madison this fall, we saw the giant sign with a mouse and cheese on it and, as we do every time we encounter a Wisconsin cheese shop, we pulled over to check it out. It was a quaint place with some rather interesting exterior decore, and of course terrific … Continue reading
Sassy Cow Creamery: So Much More Than Just A Cheese Store
A short while back our good friend Steve “The Owner” Tate decided we should spend the afternoon just hanging and having some fun, so he took us out to the Sassy Cow Creamery about twenty miles outside of Madison in the lush, gorgeous, and rolling green hills of Southern Wisconsin to a place called Sassy … Continue reading
Henning’s Cheese: Peppercorn Cheddar To Die For!
When we were at Super Bowl XLV in Texas we were able to interview Sarah “The Cheese Lady” Kaufmann at Central Market in Fort Worth while she carved all sorts of cheese sculptures into some of Henning’s finest cheeses on display there.
