Flower, the beautiful bovine invites us in for a grand tour of the Tillamook Creamery in Oregon!
*Clicking on a photo will give you a closer look!
Here are the highlights from the Hubster’s and my tour up in the viewing gallery:
There are sharp rotating blades in the very large vats.
Salt is the only additive, and it is added in the last step before compressing the curds into 40 pound blocks.
As the cutting machine cuts big blocks into pieces, the workers keep pace while breaking apart pieces, inspecting them, and putting them on the belt.
Tillamook Creamery cuts about a million pounds of cheese a week!
That’s about 115 two pound baby loafs a minute!
You can also visit a cheese and gift store, as well as the dining hall to get good eats!
See the world around you!
