You know what I do miss? Culver's. No....Kopp's. I miss Kopp's more than Culver's. Oh the frozen custard from there was divine.
I had a friend who lived in GB at that time and the first time I went out to a burger place with her when they told me what all went on it, I was like "yeah, can you leave the butter off?" and the waitress acted like I'd copulated right in front of the Pope. lol.
She was all like "honey, you're not from around here, are you?"
And true story? I WAS a football fan. Then I spent 4 years in WI, and that ended my love of football. Ironically, I'd been a Packers fan. But the degree to which people take their love for the Packers in WI was quite frankly terrifying. And you couldn't escape a game. It was EVERYWHERE. That's my one bad memory of WI.
But the fact that you can find good cheese at a gas station, yeah, I can't debate that. Good cheese is everywhere up there. And the sausage! Don't even get me started on the sausage.

It is indeed tough to find good seafood here unless you want to spend $$$$. I can get a delightful 5 year cheddar at the gas station here!
