Watch out cheese criminals, it looks like some charitable cheese heroes are surfacing. Hailing from the farmland of Pennsylvania, the PA Dairymen\u2019s Association<\/a> recently brought four tons of cheese<\/a> to the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Dairymen\u2019s Association takes pride in having provided guests of the Pennsylvania Farm Show<\/a> with milkshakes, fried cheese cubes, and grilled cheese sandwiches for over sixty years. This year, however, they set their sights a little higher and partnered with the food bank.<\/p>\n

Along with taking donations, The Dairymen\u2019s Association used the help of 2,000 cows who made their way to Harrisburg, Penn., as part of the 2015 All-American Dairy Show<\/a>, which took place in September at the PA Farm Show Complex and Expo Center.<\/p>\n

The Association sent the cow’s milk to Penn Cheese<\/a> in Winfield, where it was converted into cheese and given to the food bank. The 8,300 pounds of cheese is worth approximately $40,000. The cheese has been broken into 170,000 slices and is estimated to feed around 40,000 people in 27 countries.<\/p>\n

“We are thrilled to receive this,\u201d Joe Arthur, the executive director of the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank said to Penn Live<\/a><\/cite>. \u201cIf we don’t receive this donation we have to buy it on the market and it is very expensive. It’s going to be a huge help for a lot of people.”<\/p>\n

We hope any potential cheese thieves reading this are inspired to change their ways. If so, The PA Dairymen\u2019s Association is still accepting online donations<\/a>, or you can get in touch with your own local food bank to find ways to get involved.<\/p>\n
