40 Trivia Facts to Learn This Weekend (So You’d Have Something Interesting to Share With Your Friends and Family)

Italy is known for its amazing cuisine. Cheese is among one of its most famous exports. The country is serious about its cheese production and cultivates plenty of different cheeses that we can’t get in the States. However, another completely unassuming place tops Italy in terms of cheese production: Wisconsin.

Any American worth their salt knows that Wisconsin is the go-to cheese producer. They produce more cheese than any other state in the country, making about 26% of the United States’ cheese. Those Wisconsin cows help make so much cheese, in fact, that the state ranks slightly higher than Italy in terms of cheese production. Pretty impressive.
