Today I rise to honor Osceola Cheese, our October Small Business of the Month in the great Fourth Congressional District of Missouri. Established in 1944, Osceola has provided cheese, beef jerky, various meat selections--I know you are getting hungry, Mr. Speaker--and also specialty sauces and mixes to Missouri and to the United States. With the business growing, they acquired a new building in 1946, including 15 trucks. They were collecting milk from 1,000 dairy farms across our great State. When Truman Lake began to develop, the business relocated to 13 Highway and officially changed from Riverview Cheese to Osceola Cheese in St. Claire County. Osceola has continued to expand with facility redesigns, new flavors, and new snacks. They have more than 275 varieties of cheese, from mild cheddar to chocolate cheese. That is right, I said chocolate cheese. Congratulations to Osceola Cheese for 79 years of success. Mr. Speaker, say along with me, 79 years of great cheese. Say cheese.
