America Faces Surplus Of Cheese With Record Dairy Production

Workers prepare molds as a vat of Colby cheese is prepared at Widmer's Cheese Cellars on June 27, 2016 in Theresa, Wisconsin. Widmer's is an artisanal cheesemaker that has produced cheese in the same facility for four generations much the same way as it was made by the founder, with traditional open vats and curds being stirred and scooped into molds by hand. Record dairy production in the United States has produced a record surplus of cheese causing prices to drop. Despite this surplus Widmer's says it continues to see growth as consumers continue to gravitate toward craft-made food products. (Footage by Scott Olson/Getty Images)
