Let us label it '0BAMA CHEESE!'

It would be fitting revenge for 1982...

[Cowboy Bob]

I tend to buy more cheese when it goes on sale. Have they ever thought of putting it on sale??? Or is it more fun to rape the American taxpayer?

Hey! How ya been? :)

I just woke up and poked around. Going back to sleep but hope you’re well.

Dont know much about the cheese business. Wonder if any FReeper makes their living this way.

[GSWarrior]

It’s called a bail-out.

[Mr. Blond]

Use it to build the wall.

[V K Lee]

What’s next, a very large stash of macaroni? Cake? Cake? Let ‘em eat cheese!

[V K Lee]

Easy rat hunting! Like shooting fish in a barrel.

And I thought they wee thinking of us by trying to get everyone on protein diets to make us strong and healthy. Bob Atkins would have been so proud.

"Gracefully surrender the things of youth: birds, clean air, tuna, Taiwan.
And let not the sands of time get in your lunch.
Hire people with hooks.
For a good time, call 606-4311. Ask for Ken.
Take heart in the bedeepening gloom
That your dog is finally getting enough cheese.
And reflect that whatever fortune may be your lot,
It could only be worse in Milwaukee.
For Milwaukee be the capital of Cheeseheadland, USA.

Ban pre-sliced cheese!
Make America Grate again!

[Bullish]

Now WHO’S gonna’ cut the cheese?

[LukeL]

The cheese store from Monty Python could use some of the surplus, they are sold out of everything

[Cowboy Bob]

I’ve been well. Hope all is well with you too!

[Drango]

they were getting record prices

But I haven't seen a corresponding DROP in prices.

[Sacajaweau]

They’ve done this for years. Folks on SS that I know were very grateful. Great toasted cheese sandwiches....mac and REAL cheese

[Safetgiver]

Our government: needed to cut the cheese, as usual.

[Clutch Martin]

Reagan gave out cheese ,& was hated for it.

BHO will pass out cheese,
It will not appease,
The gimme-gimme’s will pout and snear,
As they only want big screen TV’s and
Beer.
