Say Cheese! American Cheesemakers Make Their Move

The World

California wines have become as popular and sophisticated as French wines. Now it seems American cheese makers are aiming for the same success and stature. On this morning’s menu The Takeaway talks cheese, specifically the varietals made in the USA. We are joined by food contributor Kathy Gunst and Liz Thorpe. Liz is the vice president of Murray’s Cheese in New York and author of the new book, The Cheese Chronicles: A Journey Through the Making and Selling of Cheese in America, From Field to Farm to Table.
