Cheese and Dairy

Did you know that the University of Minnesota has a rich history of dairy product research that goes back to the early 1900s? Researchers here were instrumental in developing procedures for making blue cheese in the United States. The Dairy Salesroom is open to the public on Wednesdays between 2 and 5 p.m. In addition to delicious cheese, you'll find ice cream and frozen yogurt.

Meat

The University of Minnesota was the first university in the United States to have a meat laboratory built in 1901. Meat products, such as beef, lamb, pork, poultry and sausage, made by students are available for sale on Wednesdays between 2 and 5 p.m.
