Wisconsin will host a festival this summer to honor one of the state's most famous foods.

Wisconsin Welcomes The Return Of Curd Fest

If you look closely at our neighbors to the north, once you get over the fact that they're all Green Bay Packers fans, there are many things to like about Wisconsin. For example, they know how to party. Plus, they offer delicious food that will never be confused with being healthy.

One of those popular dishes is cheese curds. They taste so good when they hit your lips. Unfortunately, I don't think you'll find a doctor that will approve them for your well-balanced diet. That's okay because you have to eat for fun sometimes.
