Football Food Follies
Get Cheesy
 The playoff season is here, and whether your
team is in or not (sorry, Rams fans-you just missed out with that
stellar 1-15 season), we think it's the perfect excuse to have a
party...and serve cheese. When people think football
parties, particularly Super Bowl bashes, they generally go all masculine-meat-big
portions-beer and basic. But not
surprisingly, we think cheese should play a big part in these gatherings. Besides, women like football, too. In fact, some women like football more than
their men. (Wait, did I just say that
some women like football more than they like their men? Or more than their men like football? You decide.)
Or you might watch the big game for the commercials or the potential
halftime scandal. So without giving up
any machismo, here are some cheesy football food ideas, and a sweet deal. If you order $50 or more online from us before
the Super Bowl on February 7th, we'll give you 15% off. Just enter the code super2010 in the coupon
field when checking out. (Order by Tuesday, February 1st to get it
there in time for the big game.)

Quotes of Note
Grow up
Bev Bennet writes about Robust Grilled Cheese for Grown-ups, published in the Hartford Courant:
Start by using cheese with robust, adult flavor. Buy a block of fine
aged cheddar, such as the Tillamook or Grafton Village Cheese brand, in
place of processed cheese. Although you can buy shredded cheese, buy a
block of cheese instead and shred it just before making the sandwich to
assure best quality.
Smith & Wollensky in Chicago is having a Chicago Scotch Dinner with Grafton Village Cheese on January 27th.

Cheese in the shape of Vermont
 Stuart Watson was eating some Grafton cheese the other day and lo and behold, a piece broke off into the shape of our state. Yup, he's a photographer, so he shared.
