As if participating in my first 5K was not a cool enough way to spend last Saturday…it got even cooler later that afternoon when Jackson and I had lunch and spent the afternoon with the great folks from Tillamook Cheese.
Not only did I get a photo with one of the super cute Baby Loaf buses that are traveling the country right now to share the #LoafLove cheesy goodness of Tillamook, but I also got to participate in a fun grilled cheese contest, and learn more about Tillamook as a brand.
Tillamook is a co-op of hardworking dairy farmers dedicated to putting smiles on faces by making the most consistent, best tasting, highest quality dairy products made in the most natural way possible. That’s the way they have done it since 1909 and the way they always will.
And I gotta say, their cheese is REALLY tasty. The sharp cheddar especially. SO YUM. And trust me, I’ve tasted a lot of cheese in my almost 28 years…I know what I’m talking about.

I had never participated in a grilled cheese contest before…but I gave it my best shot. I guess I did pretty well because my sandwich won most creative!
Thanks so much Tillamook for a great afternoon with yummy cheese! Jackson and I really enjoyed it.

Disclosure: Tillamook invited me to lunch and provided me tickets to the Houston Zoo so they could meet me and discuss my opinions about their products face to face. I received no other compensation for this event or this post. These are my own, honest opinions. I only share products and services with my readers that I fee are trustworthy and that I can stand behind with pride.
