Dear California:
Edited on Thu Sep-28-06 03:51 AM by JonathanChance
It has come to our attention that your misguided messages and commercials have not yet ceased, due to this indescretion we will promptly be shoving a wedge of California cheese sideways up your ass.

Love,
Wisconsin

PS- We will choose California cheese so as not to ruin a perfectly good wedge of Wisconsin cheese, besides, California cheese tastes like shit anyway.

1. So go out to the barn in your cold weather
Our cows are still happy in the fields of California
they have a great weather

They just saw the sun go down
from their view on the mountain
and saw it sink into the sea.

Now they head home or get up and greet that same life
every day.

say
cheese..........


LOL

3. YEAH what Jonathan Said
No one wants your elitest coastal cheese, they want cheese from real american cows from a real american state not the socialist republic of California. Whenever a product advertises something that has cheese in it, it is WISCONSIN cheese, no one cares about California cheese.

4. Sadly, whether Californian or Wisconsonian...
Edited on Thu Sep-28-06 04:55 AM by Kutjara
...it is all 'American' cheese. Any true gourmet knows that the only real cheese is French. Anything else is cheese substitute. I laugh at your palates. I unclog my nose at your cheese-appreciating organs. Silly American people. Adieu.

7. Except that California cheese has been beating the French. IN France.
From those happy Petaluma cows with the Marin Cheese company....they make incredible brie, and the French have picked it over their own Brie for the last couple of years. It's like the '76 Paris tasting, aaaaall over again.

Seriously, we are making some mind-blowingly great artisan cheese in California these days.

11. Definitely
California cheese is the BEST.

Wisconsin confuses the quantity of the cheese they make with the quality. Their cheese is like their beer - they make lots of it, and it's all really crappy. :-)

15. 'It's not much of a cheese shop, is it?'
"Finest in the district, sir."

"Explain the logic behind that conclusion."

"Well, it's so clean."

"It's certainly uncontaminated by cheese."

5. our organic cows who have been eating organic grass
and and chewing organic cud make much better cheese than your astro-turf eating cows in wisconsin.

we will promptly be bombing wisconsin with organic italian style organic bread -- head for your pathetic tornado cellars.

but took a little bizz trip up the 101 to Ukiah the other day for those unbeknown ;) http://www.ukiahchamber.com , and the point she makes regarding Marin cattle & atmospherics 88dgs, breezy blue skies with puffy white clouds drifting past (drove through Hopland too early for the brewery to be open x( but it's all good) birthing a glorious brie are undeniable as well...excellent retort as to a florescent orange cheese filled realm to the east i must say :thumbsup:

:spray: :rofl: sadly perhaps, it ain't all about the cheese...it's about the Big Picture!! :hi:

13. Forget you all.....Tillamook Cheese Rules!!!
Sad to say, we don't see much Wisconson cheese here though. However, I'd sure like some. You go to the store here and there's all this yuppie, high hat cheese from the darling eco-friendly local home of so and so's vineyard with happy goats that cost like $10 for a wedge. Don't waste your money.

20. Most of our California cows live sucky lives in the Central Valley.
Standing on deep piles shit in the hot summer sun, just like they do in Wisconsin.

True, it's not so cold in the winter, but it's almost equally depressing.

Organic cows living in grassy fields from both places are lucky, even as it is the fate of all dairy cows to end up in dog food, tacos, burritos, and cans of soup.
