Green Bay Wisconsin is known for producing cheese, hence the cheese heads.

Actually, when they entered the league they were founded by the green bay packing and shipping company, which specialized in shipping... you guessed it cheese,and as it has been said Wisconsin is the major supplier of American dairy products. The cheese head thing was started as an insult form Chicago Bears fans as they are there major rival, Packer fans turned it in to a rallying cry or calling card.

I think you should give the best answer to the person who told you about Wisconsin being known for cheese, that is why the Packers are known as cheese heads

Wisconsin is known as "America's Dairyland", producing cheese, thus the cheesehead hats. It is all in good fun, and sets us aside from the other fans in the NFL. As to the Bears cutting the cheese, I am sure they are all good at it, as most Bear fans are full of s***. I should know-I married one. LOL

It makes absolutely no sense and can not be explained.
It's was a catchy marketing idea that was successful.
Wisconsin is know for it's cheese and the Packers so they market both of them both at the games.

Because of the cold harsh windy winters oxygen flow to the brain is diminished so they just decided to do something cheesy. Their original idea was to put fudge on their heads but then people would call them the fudge packers.
