Halloween is regarded as one of the strongest food service days of the year for pizza sales, with frozen pizza sales also strong.<\/p>\n<p>Demand for cheese in the West mostly remains strong, with some buyers showing steady interest. There have been inquiries seeking additional cheese beyond contracted supplies received by some manufacturers. However, other manufacturers continue to face buyers who are strategizing purchases in more of a hand-to-mouth fashion, based on future price movement expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Milk supplies are seasonally lower, but still above year ago levels in the Pacific Northwest.
