Profuse & Pulchritudinous Parmigiano Porn

Photos from the "Say cicciolata" collection"

Cheese is my heroin,” is a phrase I often use, especially when I am faced with a mountain of Parmigiano. I have gotten over my affliction in the last year, now it is less an addiction than an indulgence. Recently, in Medesano at Azienda Agricola Bertinelli, Mohammed came to the mountain. Feast your eyes on the prize.

Godiamo, la tazza, la tazza e il cantico,
la vorgna abbella e il riso;
la vorgna questo, in questo paradiso ne scopra il nuovo dì.

The Drinking song from La Traviata Lyrics by Giussepe Verdi,who was born near where these images were taken











A little cheese, a little salumi, a little Lambrusco, you get the idea



Once again with the lovely protective clothing


Nicola Bertinelli, the animated proprietor.


What's life without a little cicciolata once in a while, eh?
