このコンテンツについて
In the frosty winter of 1802, the American presidency witnessed a unique act of gratitude—a colossal 1,200-pound wheel of cheese, crafted not just with milk, but with a message of faith and liberty. Delivered by oxen over treacherous roads from the small town of Cheshire, Massachusetts, this gift embodied the hopes and convictions of a humble community standing behind President Thomas Jefferson.
Organized by Baptist preacher John Leland, this audacious cheese-making endeavor used milk exclusively from Republican cows, embedding deep-seated political undertones into every bit of curd. Carved with the bold motto, "Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God," the cheese was more than a dairy product. It was a physical manifestation of Jeffersonian ideals—religious freedom and anti-elites sentiment.
As this mammoth cheese made its way into the White House, it became a symbol of democratic expression and rural determination. Join us on Time Tellers as we delve into this whimsical yet pivotal moment in history, exploring how simple curds once carried the weight of a nation's principles and forged a lasting legacy.
