The Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin are teasing the opening of a new luxury spa, the Wedgewater Spa in Madison, Wisconsin, as the first cheese-themed destination of its kind. Set to open its doors on April 1st, the immersive cheese experience offers premium beauty and wellness treatments that bring the best cheese that Wisconsin has to offer to the forefront. On the menu, there are treatments like the Fondue Facial, Milk Baths and Rind Scrubs.
Some brands use April Fool's Day as an opportunity to showcase their creativity and sense of humor by teasing outrageous ideas. However, these ideas are not always just a joke. As seen in years past, some brands use this as a way to gauge consumer interest and demand for potential new products, services and destinations.
