WAUSAU – Each American eats about 35 pounds of cheese each year.

One company is building big in Wausau to keep pace.

"We will have state-of-the-art packaging, trying to create that innovation for the customer that wants to have some of those uniquenesses for the marketplace," said Dan Zagzebski, the president and CEO of Great Lakes Cheese.
