CHEESE
Wisconsin is the Cheese Capitol of the USA
There you can find cheese ever on display
And of this wonderful thing called cheese
There is a type for everyone if you please
There's Cheese Grits, and Nacho Cheese
Muenster, Guta, and Cantonese
Goats and cows milk both are used
Making it easy to become confused
Even sheep and camels get in on the act
Their milk is used for cheese -- that's a fact
Cheese is a staple familiar to all
It comes in slices or rolled up in a ball
There's Parmagiano-Reggiano, Gouda and Brie
And smelly Limburger, you may want to try
Roquefort, Camembert, Cotija and Chevre
Monterey Jack and Mozzarella
Emmental, Taleggio, and Feta
The list goes on, and the Cheese gets better
But I'm only allowed to post twenty lines
So you'll have to Google for more flavors to find
