The American cheese mountain
There is way too much cheese in America, so the US Department of Agriculture is buying a massive amount of it.
The USDA have said they will buy around 11 million pounds of cheese (worth roughly $20 million) and distribute it to food banks around the country.
Bruce Babcock, Professor of Economics of Iowa State University, told Shaun Ley that "people can only eat so much cheese".
