Clark...what you REALLY missed at Babcock Dairy Hall at the UW was the ice cream. Now THAT has GOT to be World Famous!!
Oh! But I did have some ice cream! It was excellent! I only mentioned the cheese because that was this thread's topic.
A week later, when I returned to Philly, what were the only souvenirs of my trip? Wisconsin cheese! I brought home about 4 or 5 pounds of six or seven varieties of cheeses! It only lasted about a week!
Hi uggabagga... "squeaky cheese" is new to me....is this something that comes from a cheese shop or that you can buy in a grocery store? Cheese curd I could definitely try....

i wish i could locate some good 'squeaky cheese' [cheese curds]. i could eat a whole bag of that stuff..
We drove thru Wisconsin on our way home a few weeks ago. We stocked up on all different kinds of cheeses for family & friends.
We brought home a LOT of cheese.
I had never had cheese curds before. In all the cheese stores we went to, they had plenty of samples to try. The cheese curds I had were all very good.
I brought home caraway seeds in cheese for my Mom. She LOVES it. No thanks...I don't like caraway seeds.
I also brought her horseradish cheese...she LOVES it also. No thanks... I don't like horseradish.
We brought home lots of provel, regular & smoked.
Cheddar cheese, pepperjack, swiss, colbyjack. Parmesan, smoked string cheese & a cheese I thought was fantastic was vegtable cheese. It was very good.
Gouda & several others.
It was fun picking out all these cheeses.
Everyone is ready for us to go thru WI again. LOL...
I was checking out the cheese selection in the gourmet cheese area of my local supermarket yesterday and I came upon one I'd never seen before, so I bought it to try it out. It's called "bread cheese". The package says you can fry it and serve it with honey and jam. It sounded interesting so I thought I'd give it a shot, but I haven't opened it yet. I think I will give it a try this morning. Anyone ever try this? Just curious what y'all think.
I come from a family of cheese lovers. Growing up, there was always a cheese plate at the end of the meal with at least five or six cheeses to choose from. Thus, cheese is one of my favorite foods.
Some of the ones I love best are Tillamook sharp Cheddar (this is an excellent American cheese), Gruyere, Morbier, Camembert, Brie, Brillat-Savarin, Pont l'eveque, Gouda, Edam, Smoked Gouda, Vacherin, Raclette, Comte, Bleu d'Auvergne, Gorgonzola, Roquefort, Tete de Maure, Cantal, Epoisses, Pecorino Toscano, Pecorino Sardo, Fontina.
Yum!!
