Well, today we did the Italian Food Days Experience. We toured a parmigiana reggiano factory and saw the process of cheese making from beginning to end. We were able to buy more tha two pounds of aged parmagiano for 25 euro, which works out to less than $15 per pound. This was substantially less than even Costco, and I don't think Costco sells real parmagiano. Next we learned about real balsamic vinegar, and finally we toured a prosciutto factory. Then it was off to a local winery for a light 8 course lunch. When we got back to the hotel we needed to take a nap. Bologna's been great and tomorrow we are off to Milano for the final stop of our journey.
