For the Love of Provel, a Processed Cheese
Hate it or love it, the people of St. Louis aren't ashamed of their processed cheese. Provel has a swarm of admirers who adore its tangy flavor. Citydwellers get their fix at Imo's, where they serve the cheese on pizzas and salad. The packaged Provel is recognized as a regional specialty.
