The Big Cheese follows a scrappy team of eccentric cheesemongers in the world of competitive cheesemongering as they battle personal struggles and cultural clashes while training to become world champion cheesemongers. With reputations, redemption, and a historic victory on the line, can they finally prove America belongs on the world’s biggest cheese stage? Adam “Mr. Moo” Moskowitz is attempting to change that by coaching a team of American cheesemongers to victory at the Mondial du Fromage, the “Olympics of Cheese,” in France. Team USA has never won.
