Tillalympics: 5 lb Cheese Shot Put
The 2012 Summer Olympics is the event of the year. While Tillamook dairy products don’t have much to do with sporting events on their own, we decided to give some summer events a Tillamook twist. What happens when you have a 5 lb Cheese Shot Put event? You’re about to find out!

What a horrible thing to do to a perfect hunk of cheese!!! At least you didn’t try to swim with it!

Alright I get it now… I would compete in the Cross Country Jumping & endurance race, also in the Dressage Dance (dancing horses)! That’s where I’d be! Wish me luck!! LOL

Hi Alexis,
You can get 5 lb loafs in some places! Have you visited our Where to Buy page? Now, about those events… How can we get cheese worked into them… :) We wish you all the cheesy luck in the world!

Hi Cony,
We were still able to use the cheese even after the shot put! A little dent here and there didn’t stop us. I think I might sink trying to swim with a 5 lb loaf of cheese :)
