The Cheese Factory

Like the adult version of Willy Wonka’s candy factory, the Tillamook Cheese Factory stands on the beautiful Oregon coast beckoning all sophisticated men and women to come and partake of man’s best creation - cheese!  It truly is a wondrous sight to behold.  What could be more fun than a giant factory producing 40 pound blocks of mild, medium, sharp and white cheddar, pepper jack, squeaky cheese and more!  Unfortunately, Jeff and I didn’t have time to wait in the huge ice cream line for a cone of the world’s finest ice cream, but luckily Tillamook ice cream is readily available at any grocery store in the Northwest – Marionberry Pie is my favorite flavor.  Still, the cheese samples and Jeff’s new found love for squeaky cheese curds were well worth the trip to the coast.  Not to mention, we had a pretty great scenic drive between Tillamook and Seattle.
