Did You Know?
Every wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano is stamped with the dairy number and month of production, aged at least twelve months, and tested by a consortium inspector who taps it with a hammer and listens. Failed wheels have their rind stripped.
The clock: Parma keeps UTC+1. The wheels are sometimes used as bank collateral — one local bank holds hundreds of thousands of them in climate-controlled vaults.
