It's the cheesiest!

Wisconsin has more Pigglywigglys than Georgia.

What has the world come to, that a southern state so steeped in culture and heritage is outdone by yankees* in regards to such an icon as "Mr. Pig"? I'm writing to Ray Stevens** about this.

UPDATE! I'M AN IDIOT!
Piggly Wiggly is, indeed, headquartered in Texas. This:
"Web site for Fresh Brands Inc, headquartered in Sheboygan, Wisconsin servicing 90 Piggly Wiggly stores."
Was most likely my source of confusion, and I apologize for misleading people on this critical issue.

The question that lead me on my quest about Wisconsin burns once more:
What in tarnation is the Pig doing so far north?

*Wisconsin is the corporate headquarters of Pigglywiggly, so it only makes sense that there are quite a few in the area, or vice versa. Still, many people (read: "my wife and I") associate that store with the south and southern living... not Sheboygan.
