Why do I want cheese now?
cheese has never looked so good before
This better not awaken anything in me
Too late
Sigh… unzips pants
Well, I’m not going to not daydream that maybe my little piece of parmesean came from one of those wheels. That’s a lot of cheese - it’s not like they’re going to just throw that out.
I’ve read that in Parma the cheese is so valuable they essentially have banks that hold the cheese for people. I’m almost wondering if this cheese was her payment for the marketing gig.
Time to buy some swiss cheese
These images are almost perfectly arousing, they just need to get rid of the lady and I’ll be at full mast
There seems to be a strategically placed hand blocking the parmesan grinder.
And she’s looking at the camera in a way that says, “I know you looked there.”
That is a big chunk of cheese.
Average vegetarian
Guilty as charged. I would absolutely devour that wheel.
My daughter would too, but she’s lactose intolerant. She still eats cheese, but not as much as she would if she wasn’t.
Most hard cheeses don’t have much lactose
I know, I have that genetic flaw too, I just don’t let it slow my cheese consumption. I do like the hard cheeses for that reason though.
Original Parmesan cheese is lactose free after 12 months of seasoning (good ones are generally 24-48 months). The one in the picture says 2012, so it’s safe to assume that your daughter can eat the whole wheel and not be affected by the lactose intolerance at all!
She’s a cheese-ist! Get her!
I was sad to learn Parmesan isn’t vegetarian :(
I was wondering why:
Calf rennet is used, which comes from the stomach of slaughtered calves.
It’s kind of funny, having the calves slaughtered to get the milk that is naturally meant for them is considered vegetarian (as long as you personally don’t eat the veal).
If they’re kept on abusive factory farms, that’s still vegetarian.
When the dairy cows gets their throats slit because milk production drops below profitablity after ~5 years, the milk is still seen as vegetarian (as long as someone else buys the meat).
No matter how much death and suffering takes place at the farm, the milk is seen as vegetarian. But at rennet, that’s where they draw the line.
Hope they use the same ones they did for veal.
They use the ones that are culled for making milk. Bunch of male calves that the dairy industry has no use for. They’re not raised for meat because they’re not as cost effective to feed as beef cattle. Gotta keep getting the cow pregnant to keep making milk.
The dairy industry and the meat industry are two sides of the same coin.
Oof, thanks for this.
Vegans: I’m not impressed.
I approve this message.
Shit, I should’ve become a gymnast…
I should have become cheese…
You’re in luck, that joke is cheesy
That’s why parmesan smells so bad
I take it you’ve only had green top shakers?
If I were parmesan I’d sponsor her too. She’s the wheel deal.
I find this post kind of chessy…and yes I will see myself out.
She won gold before ever making it to Paris
As a man of Italian heritage, I find this incredibly appealing on several levels
Wow.
