Ok here's a couple http://www.ricottaandcheese.com/index.htmlA link would be nice. All I found were cheese stores. Keep in mind it takes 4 hours to ride to south Fl. 8 hours round trip. There is a reason why Wisconsonians are called Cheese Heads.
Cheese is not a big tourist draw in Florida. I'm just busting chops on the regional thing. I get plenty of tags, so don't sweat it. I've actually curbed my enthusiasm for grabbing every tag I can get. Winter months will be around again soon enough to keep me hustling for tags.
It's a good tag.

I would be in heaven!
No cheese factories around here that I know of.
But, I did ride past a really large one in Tillamook, Oregon.

Yea they don't call us cheese heads for nothing. Larry the Cable Guy was in town filming for an only in America episode, they stopped in a local pub for lunch. Had him sample a locally made specialty cheese sandwich, grilled Limburger and onion on dark rye, Baumgardners in Monroe WI makes them on Wednesdays for lunch. See Larry's reaction http://www.history.com/shows/only-in...sehead-charity They stink to hi heaven,
but the local Swiss like them.
FYI: The only cheese factory in the USA to make Limburger cheese is about 9 miles from mi house. Chalet cheese. http://www.eatwisconsincheese.com/wi...spx?artisan=16Comment

I bought some Gummi Bears that were made in Australia, packaged in China and sold from a distributor in Georgia before.
And they were only .50 for a 5 ounce package!
Just HOW CHEAP is food to be made that it costs LESS for it to travel around the Globe?
But, if we send a GS part just across a few state lines/ a thousand miles, it is VERY EXPENSIVE to ship!

Have been there a few times. Good eats. Big fan of the products of New Glarus as well, but that may be a tag for a different day.
I'm too close to Cheesehead land and spend too much time there to avoid this one. Would like to jump on this tag but not sure about today's weather.Last edited by Guest; 07-13-2012, 02:38 AM.Comment

Thanks, the first one wont pull up m my phone. The WPDairy I'll give a try after work, but I don't expect to see a plant there. That area used to be rural, but has been run over by subdivisions. And WP is kinda artsie fartsie, so don't expect much by way of a cheese factory. Since Larry the Cable Guy grew up a few miles north of me, I might have a better chance of takeing a photo of him cutting the cheese. lol Somebody get the cheese pleese.Comment

If he rides to my house I'll ride my bike back with him. Its only a short 25 hrs in each direction.
If he leaves now we should be back in Orlando mid afternoon on Sunday.

Nobody rides on the back of my bike, but my old lady. Unless I'm ready for a new old lady. Stop trying to get me in dutch with my chickie. BETWEEN YOU AND ERIC, I wont have to worry about my bikes getting me the boot. Now back to business, LB McCloud is an industrial area and sounds like the better chance of a proper tag. Warning though, it's right down the street from Universal Studios and a bunch of other attractions. The next tag will be a tourist trap of some kind.Comment
