Re: Cheese economics

Jib,

Excellent analysis of the situation.

I have heard stories of people from out of state (way out of state) coming to visit their relatives in Wisconsin and running to the store to buy Wisconsin's famed cheese. What do they come away with? Velveeta! We are not going to win a competition to produce the most Velveeta and to try to do so would cause more of the hated mega-factory farms to appear.

I agree, the Wisconsin cheese industry needs to concentrate on is the high quality specialty cheese market.

Ever have six year old cheddar? It contains crunch. The crunch comes from sugar crystals.
