A Dyspeptic's Guide to America's Dairyland

Quick note to left-coasters: Calm down. Yes I realize California produces more dairy products than Wisconsin, however, much of Wisconsin's population has a relationship with local food specialties that's pretty comprehensive.

Remembrances of gustatory anomolies from my week visit:

Upon arrival Friday PM, enjoyed a beer at the Union Terrace, along with a Babcock Hall ice cream cone, and a grilled bratwurst. I believe that's known locally as a light snack. BTW, Babcock Hall ice cream is the best ice cream I have ever head. I managed to get the ice cream twice more druing the week. I feel like a pig.

I had pan fried Walleyed pike twice - fried in butter, of course. Fried eggs and salami for breakfast.

Rhubarb pie with dutch crust, I never see rhubarb in California.

Oddly enough, no cheese, except some cream cheese I had with a bagel.

Of course, everything washed down with local brew.

I feel like this guy.


That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
