As the world’s cheese capital, Wisconsin is home to more than 600 varieties of wheels, sticks, slices, shreds and, of course, curds. Joining the latest episode of The Dairy Download are two guests putting the state’s offerings in coolers across the globe.

First up is Kristine Hansen, author of the Wisconsin Cheese Cookbook. Who are the producers and processors behind Wisconsin dairy? What’s a pizza farm? And how do you make apple pie with a cheddar crust? She dishes the details.

Next is Jen Walsh, chief operating officer with Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin. From canned cheese to specialty ice cream, she discusses dairy demand and her work keeping the state’s products at the forefront. She also talks about the importance and quality behind that “Proudly Wisconsin” label.
