It seems that just about everyone in Wisconsin has a favorite spot for fried cheese curds, and claims that their spot is simply the best. It’s a tough competition – in nearly every Wisconsin pub, tavern and restaurant you’ll find fried curds on the menu. One snack spot can make the claim that it’s curds are fresher than the rest, but it’s not a pub or restaurant. Yep, it’s actually a cheese factory that cooks up the freshest curds, right where they are made. Here’s why you need to taste the awesome curds at Mullins Cheese Store.
