Actually, Schuler's is still a very successful restaurant in Marshall, MI. Their food is phenomenal and the cheese spread is still amazing!<br/><br/>http://www.schulersrestaurant.com/

I had some difficulty achieving the proper consistency--the result was not a spread--so I left out the milk. However, it tastes great, especially after mellowing a bit. I used mine as a dip for homemade potato chips.
