Damn it, have to agree. Parmigiano Reggianob IS overrated on pasta. However, how can you select a cheese from an inferior cheese making country, surely the best cheese is from the country which makes the most varieties of cheese?
Roquefort isn't as good as Stilton, which even in white, which is good (blue is just a flex), isn't as good as the herculean Cornish Yarg.
