NACHO AVERAGE CHEESE
CHEESE IS BIG BUSINESS IN TEXAS. Yes, you read that right. There are over 30 cheesemakers across the state. Local artisan
cheeses are delicious and, duh, local. But don’t take our word for it; the American Cheese Society has recognized several
already. You can pick up most of these at Houston Dairymaids. Owner LINDSEY SCHECTER shares, “We’re a cheese shop that meets
artisan American cheesemakers, learns about their craft and brings the best of their products to you. We look for cheeses naturally
made by hand and, when possible, from unpasteurized milk.”
