June is National Dairy Month. It started as National Milk Month and was intended to promote drinking cold glasses of milk in the warm summer months. These days, Americans eat more dairy than they drink. Cheese consumption is at an all time high according to the International Dairy Foods Association, with Americans eating more than 40 pounds of the stuff annually.  There s even a National Cheese Day, which is Friday.  The origins of cheese go back some 4,000 years. The food is thought to have been an accident, born from an Arabian merchant traveling through the dessert with milk stored in a pouch made from a sheep s stomach. When he opened the pouch, the milk had separated into curd and whey.
