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.

Nueske’s Meats Are As Unique As Their Name
Our first taste of Nueske’s bacon was purely by accident and in California at that. A friend brought some over and it was so good that someone blurted out half joking, half not that “this must be from Wisconsin”.
