Maytag (born 1923), both sons of Elmer Henry Maytag, created a cheese plant and storage caves on Maytag Dairy Farms to take advantage of a process developed by Iowa State University researchers to make blue cheese using homogenized milk.[2] He was married and had a son named Frederick Louis Maytag III.[3][4]
