You're speaking my language signor! Dad and his family were all born in Sicily - Messina on my grandmom's side (Genovese) and Palermo on grandpop's side (Perrone).
Aside from always loving mozzarella and provolone, I routinely buy small amounts of Parmigiano-Reggiano because of the cost but copious amounts of Gorgonzola and Pecorino-Romano.
A small saucer of pesto and olive oil for a bite of Italiano bread, a few Sicilian olives and Chianti, and a nibble of cheese and I might as well be in heaven!

You're busted 👎 You are now relegated to only eating "Cheese Wiz" for 30days.
