The CurdNerds unearthed this ridiculous video of Professional Cheese Carver Troy Landwehr fashioning an enormous block of orange cheddar cheese into - what else? - the Statue of Liberty.
The video is sped-up and set to music, and is as much a music video for the background band and an ode to oily, bland cheese as it is a promo for Showtime's State of the Union TV show.
In a world of the Wing Bowl and extreme cake decorating, the only obvious next activity to gain status was cheese carving. There are a few nail-biting moments there toward the end, when a crack in the statue's oily, curdy base threatens to topple her. But - spoiler alert! - Landwehr prevails, and to my relief, the statue is completed, carved cheesy torch and all. Although, at times during the video, if you squint, the sculpture bares a strange resemblance to Bart Simpson.
