I'm very glad I ordered this. It's about the same price as buying it piece meal from the stores and probably better quality. I read other reviews and cut it up and froze some of it. We use it a lot so it's nice to not have to buy it every other day. I will order again.

I was VERY pleased with this order. It was one piece of cheese, not chunks. It really is great tasting and so much better than the smaller chunks you can buy in a store. One downside is that my Italian wife is like a rat with that giant piece of cheese. She is gnawing the heck out of it.

Parmigiano Reggiano Top Grade 10 Pounds, I didn't Know what to expect, I saw my Mailman with a Big Box under his arm and I knew right away it was my Big Chunk of Cheese, I got so Excited, the first thing I did, after I stop Dancing, was to put it on the Scale...That's Right 10 Pounds Exactly! Took it out of the plastic bag and wrapped it in a piece of cloth after I cut off a Big 1 Pound Wedge, put it back in the plastic bag. The Smell Filled my Kitchen, Almost like a Religious Experience, I knew then, I had to Cook Something Special and Good!

I Made Whole Wheat Penne Pasta with Sausages Chopped Bell Peppers Onions Parsley Garlic and a couple Jalapeno Chiles (no seeds or white ribs) a little Tomato sauce to the Sofrito not too much maybe 3 Tablespoons and mix it all up with the Pasta and 3 Different Cheeses, Shredded Mozzarela, Low Fat Cottage Cheese and The King Of Cheeses Parmigiano Reggiano, with Homemade Bread crumbs ( I didn't have any, I had to make my own) with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and More Grated Parmigiano Reggiano, mix it all together and Sprinkle over the top to create a Crusty Brown and Crispy Topping, and in the Oven it Goes.

I Spend an Hour Creating this Masterpiece, Wow!... was that ever Good! I made enough for the four of us. My Family though I had Lost it, However, They Loved Dinner! I Like to Grate Parmigiano Reggiano over Pasta Dishes obviously and also with a Vegetable Peeler making very thin slices and Sprinkle over Salads, I do that a Lot, but my Favorite way of eating it is by cutting two long pieces like French Fried Potatoes and Pour a Little Good Orange Honey over the Cheese...so GOOD! That's how Italians eat it for Dessert, They might add some Sliced Truffles/ Fruit or some of that 100 Years Old Balsamic Vinegar!...I don't!

I had Eaten other Parmigiano Reggiano Cheeses that were Aged for longer than 18-20 months, with very hard texture and all the Crystallized little white specks that tastes like Candy! ...
This one from "Go Italy Gourmet" is Top Grade with an Excellent Taste. Another thing I really like about it, is that it doesn't have that much of that Thick Hard Rind so common of this type of Cheeses, Therefore, Not Much Waste! It arrived in Perfect Condition and in Time as Promised with Ice-Packs and Dry-Ice and a Note with Instructions from Francesco, Customer Service, I could tell they took good care of my Order, Thank You. I will Order again when ever I finish all 10 Pounds of this Wheel! ...That might take Awhile!

Did you know, Cistercian Monks first created Grana Padano Cheese in the 11th Century, Parmigiano Reggiano came about Two Hundred Years Later, each Cheese is Made according to its Ancient Origin, each Cheese today is still Identical to how they were Centuries Ago. The Name of the Town and Country where the Cheese is made is Parma, Italy, Thus the Name, it takes 160 Gallons of Milk to make a Wheel this Size of Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese, That's a Lot of Milk, and it weights about 80 Pounds!
...so 1/8 of a Wheel is 10 Pounds, that's Exactly what I've Got! ...Thank You D.D.

Amazing product. Great taste and value. Did a side by side with 2 store bought wedges of parm-reg and this won each time. You will not be disappointed with this product.

This is good quality cheese, but the flavor could be a little stronger.
