I've alway's thought Milwaukee smelled cheesy!
« on: December 27, 2013, 03:25:05 PM »
I will admit that I haven't spent a lot of time in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and here's one more reason not to; the streets have cheese brine all over them:

QUOTE
“We’re just trying to make every possible use of cheese,” said Tony Zielinski, an alderman who represents the Bay View district, adding that local governments in other states have called him to learn more about the program. “If this takes off, if this proves to be a success here, I’m sure that it will be used in cities all over the country.”

But in this dense urban setting, Milwaukee officials are reviewing a list of potential problems that come with cheese-coated streets: Would a faint odor of cheese bother residents? Would it attract rodents? Would the benefits of cheese brine, said to freeze at a lower temperature than regular salt brine, be enough to justify the additional hauling and storing requirements?

That and the cheese hats are enough to turn me away!

Whatever you do you must not take him to Wisconsin; there is very little to the state that isn't related to the Dells or to cheese!
