These Cheddar-Colored Cargo Pants Carry 3 Lb. of Cheese

Posted on 02/02/2022 7:03:11 AM PST by mylife

Precisely one week ago my colleague, senior editor MacKenzie Chung Fegan, Slacked our entire team a link to these Party Pants from Tillamook’s new Cheddar Capsule collection. There was no text attached; there didn’t need to be. They’re cheese-colored pants custom-designed for storing a lotta cheese. “​​Finally, I can take cubes of cheddar from the party cheese plate back to my apartment,” said senior social media manager Esra Erol, who is as smart at living as she is at dairy-heisting. (Keep an eye on her around your charcuterie.)

As someone whose mother recently accused her of being anti-capitalist, “like that sad protagonist in Conversations With Friends,” it’s rare that I see branded merch and think: Wow, cool, I love to be sold things that are designed to turn me into a walking billboard. Maybe it’s their sturdy-looking ship icon or the sort of Old World font they use for their logo, but I like to think of Tillamook as the nice guys of Big Cheese. They’re based in Oregon (cue the kooky Portlandia vibes). They’re a farmer-owned co-op. Their cheese is genuinely very delicious.

If things weren’t already weird enough - the name Tillamook (or whatever) - well they make - cheese. Not clothes.

So this is like Abby Hoffman and “Steal this Book”. A cheese manufacturer encouraging cheese left. Oscar Meyer weiner pants anyone? For slipping weiners into?

I don’t know how many here would recognize that brand name.

Because Oregon, particularly Portland, is the most egregious of example of uncontrolled, violent and intractable leftism on this planet, IMO. My daughter and her family lived there for three years until they escaped two years ago. The Mayor of Portland was actively supporting BLM and Antifa - let them camp down by the river in fenced-in police protected enclaves so the had quick access to riot and destroy every night for years.

Yes, it is political and Tillamook or anything else Oregon wants to sell out of state can suck it.

Their cheese may taste good but I won't buy it precisely because of - OREGON. I don't support leftist states.

Oregon is like Washington... once you get out of the big urban areas the rural areas are mostly conservative. President Trump won Tillamook County in 2020 even with all the election shenanigans. My grandfather used to make all the labels for Tillamook Cheese. People boycotting the efforts of conservatives trying to hold the line is misguided.

This leftist crap will not stop until those people you say outside of the couple of big cities take back their state, period. They have to work harder at ending their urban masters’ control. Until then, I boycott. End of discussion.

Good info. Good point. For this, you get a peek at the matching sliced cheese shoulder bag.

Oregon is a large state. Tillamook is a 72 mile, 1.25 hour drive from Portlandia.
