BULLSHIT.

Everybody knows that the best chese comes from Wisconsin

Despite what everyone else says, we still are America's dairyland.

1. Absolutely. The best cheese comes from cows that eat fodder
grown from soil that has slept sometime in the last year. Or so I've heard.

4. There were times, during the winter, that I agreed with the happy cows
living in California. ;) It's hard to be happy when you're frozen.

Still, that commercial does seem to be a direct slap in the face to Wisconsin's dairy land. Since California doesn't have a House on the Rock, just thumb your nose at them.

9. BULL FUCKING SHIT!!

California cheese tastes like FUCKING SHIT. I know, I had to eat the shit for two years when I lived in Hawaii. UTTER FUCKING CRAP.

Unless you happen to find a cheese from a small artisan cheese maker, California cheese is the worst cheese in the nation; even worse than Michigan cheese. Maybe not as bad as Illinois cheese, but I have the common decency and self-respect to have never even SMELLED, let alone look at, Illinois cheese.

And granted, Wisconsin (my home state) has a lot of shitty overprocessed cheese as well, which is embarassing, but as long as one stays away from the 900 million pounds a year "cheese factories" and sticks with the legitimate cheesemakers, of which there are hundreds if not thousands, you will do VERY well.

Vermont and New York also have amazing cheeses.

And, of course, the imported cheeses are beyond excellent.
