Glad I saw this article thanks to @crimmings & @Stuart_Keith on twitter.
Great American cheese isn't just from Wisconsin anymore. The American Cheese Society is celebrating American Cheese Month next month to highlight artisan cheese from everywhere from Wisconsin to Seattle, New York to California. Big thanks go to Wisconsin to being a big part of the founding of that movement, though.
To be fair, our curds are only $13 a pound, not $22, which I agree would be exorbitant at best. Not sure where that other price might have come from. Admittedly, $13 is over twice Cheesey Bob's $5.25, but economically, New York prices are (unfortunately) not Wisconsin prices.
Bonus Facts: PBR "competitors" in the NW, Rainier and Olympia, are both bottled by SABMiller, with the Rainier brand owned by PBR and the Olympia brand owned by Miller itself.
On It's Cute That New York is Slowly Catching Up with Wisconsin
