Wonderful, Rami!
You still remember the tour we took at the Parmigiano cheese, family-run small dairy plant, do you?
I only hope what you show in the picture is the real thing, because we keep hearing on the news here about all the forgery that is going on around the world, at the expense of famous Italian foods and wines.
If you think that Italian government officials discovered, not a long time ago, a town in China was founded and named "Parma", in order to allow claiming the hard cheese produced there is genuine Parmesan cheese, I rest me case.
Two weeks ago we heard on the news that a special Italian State Police corp, responsible for investigating food frauds here, confiscated a few hundred metric tons of chinese-made wine, sold here as genuine "Moscato" wine. A special sweet wine, great with desserts, produced from a native South Piedmont grapevine and very well known here and abroad.
Chinese-made.....the dark side of globalization which I am starting to like less and less.....
