From Nancy: ONLY TILLAMOOK makes my dog’s medicine go down! Thanks Tillamook!

From Rachel: I used to think I didn’t really like cheese. Turns out it was because I grew up on lower quality, “cheap” cheese. As an adult I discovered Tillamook and I LOVE it!

From Tiffany: My daughter sneaks your cheese! So cute! Thanks for making a product I feel confident with my daughter sneaking!

Good Aftermoon! As you may have herd, today is National Cow Appreciation Day. I am so udderly grateful for my bovine buddies. Without their delicious milk, this Baby Loaf wouldn’t exist! Don’t forget to thank a cow today, and if you don’t see any cows to thank, send them your loudest “mooooooo!” from afar.

From Ali L.: I drove through Tillamook last week (stopping by the Cheese Factory, of course), and saw what looked like the happiest cow I have ever seen in my life in one of the fields by the Factory. It was walking with a little bit of a bounce in its step and was swinging its head this way and that way, as if it were humming a tune while it walked. That cow obviously knew it was producing yummy things for everyone!

From Pete O.: Woo hoo… it is National Cow Appreciation Day! I would like to thank all the cows out there that I have enjoyed eating and getting milk products from. Especially the Tillamook cows from Tillamook, Oregon. They make the best cheese in the world. I believe it is a good day for a cheeseburger and a milkshake.

From Lynn E.M.: Had a wonderful visit. Learned a lot about making cheese. Had some wonderful ice cream. Now I am craving Tillamook Oregon Strawberry Ice Cream.

From @mruncommonsense: @TillamookCheese @alwaysnwonder …our baby girl just tried to choke me out ’cause I wasn’t feeding her Mountain Huckleberry fast enough.

From @_l1l1: @TillamookCheese is the best cheese company. Their food products are amazing. I recommend going and trying some.

From @iamacityskyline: @TillamookCheese went to your factory a few days ago. Gotta say I loved your ice cream! Very cool visit on our family vacay. :)

From @sevenslip: Thank you @TillamookCheese for helping me hide the veggies in my daughters grilled cheese sandwich yet again.

From @StenoVal: just noticed that Safeway now carries @TillamookCheese yogurt. The French Vanilla Bean is so divine. Oregon Strawberry too!

From @Randulll: @TillamookCheese I’m naming my first child “Vintage White” after your 2 year aged supercheese

 With summer weather finally here, ice cream is on everyone’s brains. What’s summer without a big bowl of Tillamook Oregon Strawberry Ice Cream? Or a waffle cone with Tillamook Marionberry Pie Ice Cream… or a scoop of Tillamook Old-Fashioned Vanilla Ice Cream on top of warm, homemade pie?!

Now I’m desperately craving ice cream! Don’t forget to stop by the store this weekend to pick up some Tillamook Ice Cream for our Ice Cream Photo Contest (winner gets 12 free cartons of Tillamook Ice Cream!).

Love,
