Headline of the Day: Rushmore from Cheese

Mohammad would have gone to this mountain but only if he wanted fondue.

From the release: Get ready for Mount Rushmore to roll into your town this summer! Instead of granite from the Black Hills of South Dakota, the profiles of presidents Washington, Jefferson, T. Roosevelt, and Lincoln will be carved out of real cheese as part of the Cheez-It(R) Big Cheese Tour. The 700 pound portable cheddar cheese version of our nation’s first grand fromages, created by veteran cheese carver, Troy Landwehr, will help raise awareness of products made with 100 percent real cheese.

Given Mr. Landwehr’s physique, I’m surprised it wasn’t co-sponsored by the American Association of Heart Surgeons.
