The Cheese Report | December 12, 2023

Howdy Cheese Lovers,

This week in cheese, our local dairies, grocers, and restaurants are buzzing with the latest cheese trends. Milk availability for cheese production has seen a shift, balancing out after Thanksgiving. This means a steady supply of your favorite cheeses is on the horizon. Cheddar and Italian-style cheeses, key ingredients for your game day pizzas and snacks, are holding strong in demand, especially with the NDSU Bison semifinal on Saturday!

Speaking of which, let’s dive into ‘The Dip Forecast’. As football fans gear up for the big game and holiday revelers for CPKC Holiday Train in the evening, it’s all about layering – both in clothing and dips! A Seven Layer Dip is not just perfect for cheering on the Bison; it’s also a great way to warm up after enjoying the Holiday Train. And what’s a dip without cheese? The market trends suggest plenty of cheese variety for your culinary adventures.

So, whether you’re crafting that perfect game day snack or looking for a cozy cheese-laden post-train snack, hit up local favorites like The Starving Rooster, Off The Vine, or Whiskey Nine. They’ve got the cheese and the cheer to make your weekend in Minot unforgettable!

The Cheese Report is a weekly SavorMinot column that combines the economics of the cheese markets with the magic of Minot’s events. It’s an informative celebration of a savory staple.
