A Lot of People Think Big Block of Cheese Day Is About Cheese

Politics

Fans of The West Wing are intimately familiar with Big Block of Cheese Day, a day on which, inspired by that show (which was in turn inspired by President Andrew Jackson), the Obama Administration has had varying leaders in our government take questions from plebs around the country via social media, using the hashtag #BigBlockOfCheeseDay. Non-West Wing fans, however, think today is a day about, well, cheese.

A sampling of individuals, spam bots, brands and media entities who should know better have taken to Twitter to share their love of the stuff.

Cheese! Love the stuff. If you want to ask questions of your elected representatives—or learn about how this odd name originated—you can do that here.
