You're from Chicago. Do you frequent Pastoral? Much better cheese than Whole Foods. Nothing I buy from there ever tastes quite right, seems lacking in flavor. This is certainly true in comparison to Pastoral.

Also, not to be missed is the Great American Cheese Company warehouse. Only open on the first Saturday of the month. Amazing stuff.

For those of you who are hooked on Velveeta, you may want to try Butterkase, which is a grown up version and actually cheese!
