I knew even before clicking the link it was either Monroe or New
Glarus. In that area even the gas stations and truck stops on main
roads have little cheese shop areas you can buy it at. Monroe is the
home of Swiss Colony. Their yearly clearance sale is a foodies dream.
It's a 2 1/2 hour drive but well worth having a fun day and it's
beautiful up there.
