The cheese was pretty good as a matter of fact. Early eighties the steel industry and others were decimated due to several issues. Unemployment compensation, no UC, lack of viable employment and food banks were the rule of the day. Gov't was emptying their federal food storage program which was a leftover from the days of backyard bunkers and such. Some whizz bang genius figured out the food would be vaporized in a non survivable nuclear strike and wasting money on storage was a dumb idea. One time someone in Gov't had their thinking cap on.Good stuff, that cheese.
