  • Introduction to Video Content
  • Costco, known for its affordable alternatives to high-priced items, offers a steal for shoppers with its in-house Kirkland Signature brand. Cheese, especially imported Italian Parmesan, is known to be expensive due to the cost of milk and the labor involved in its production and aging process. A pound of Parmesan can set you back close to $35. However, Costco's Kirkland Signature Parmigiano-Reggiano provides an excellent and budget-friendly option. Priced at $10.99 per pound, it is not only cheaper than most Parmesan options on the market but has also been endorsed for its quality by America's Test Kitchen. Unlike the United States, Italy and Europe have strict regulations governing the production and labeling of Parmigiano-Reggiano, leading to an influx of counterfeit Parmesan in the market. Costco's product, however, has been verified to be genuine by America's Test Kitchen, avoiding the risk of purchasing bogus cheese.
  • Subtitles section
  • Costco has a reputation for offering cheap but quality alternatives to high-priced items, but their in-house Kirkland Signature brand is a better steal for shoppers than they might realize.
  • Considering the price of milk and the time and labor that goes into transforming and aging it, cheese doesn't exactly come cheap.
  • Even cheese produced locally can be fairly pricey, let alone the likes of imported Italian Parmesan, known as Parmigiano-Reggiano, which enjoys the protected designation of origin status under Italian and European laws.
  • It takes 131 gallons of milk and a year of aging to make just one 88-pound wheel of Parmesan, which perhaps explains why it typically comes with a $1,000 price tag.
  • So a pound of Parmesan can make a pretty big dent in a grocery budget, with some cheesemongers charging close to $35 for a wedge.
  • This is where Costco's Kirkland Signature Parmigiano-Reggiano comes in as an excellent choice for Italian cheese on a budget.
  • Priced at $10.99 for a pound, not only is it one of the cheaper Parmesan options on market, but even America's Test Kitchen confirmed its excellent quality.
  • Parmigiano-Reggiano's PDO status comes with stringent rules and a regulated manufacturing process, but there are no regulations as to what can be labeled and sold as Parmesan cheese in the United States,
  • Leading to tons of counterfeit Parmesan.
  • According to Food Beast, a decade ago, the FDA found that a Pennsylvania-based company was selling Swiss and cheddar cheese bulked up with wood pulp as 100% grated Parmesan.
  • That's shocking.
  • That's disgusting.
  • Something fishy is really going on here.
  • But America's Test Kitchen confirmed that Costco's Parmigiano-Reggiano isn't bogus.
  • Kirkland Signature's wedge of cheese is aged for two years and carries the PDO logo, which is why it's labeled as Parmigiano-Reggiano instead of simply Parmesan.
  • A good Parmigiano-Reggiano is sprinkled throughout with little crunchy flecks of the amino acid tyrosine, providing a complex sweet and umami flavor with notes of fruit and nuts.
  • Redditors also vouch for Costco's Italian cheese.
  • A few years ago, shoppers falsely believed that Costco was discontinuing its Parmigiano-Reggiano wedges, and many hilariously called for a cheese riot against the wholesaler.
  • Some even joked about stocking up on entire wheels of Costco's $950 Parmigiano-Reggiano as an alternative because it was just that good, and it was even a quality investment.
  • Considering its enthusiastic fan base and certified quality, Costco is a safe bet if you ever want to buy reasonably priced but legitimate Parmigiano-Reggiano.
  • Costco's block of authentic Parmigiano-Reggiano is packed with flavor, ideal for incorporating richness and umami into a variety of dishes, without the heaviness and lactose load associated with fattier cheeses.
  • If you thought cheese couldn't fit into your overall health goals, you may be pleased to know that it very likely can.
  • Well, good news for cheese lovers.
  • We're getting word eating a little bit every day is actually good for your health.
  • While cheese is one of life's greatest pleasures, many cheeses aren't exactly beaming with nutrition.
  • Because they can boast high levels of sodium and saturated fat, Livestrong says that eating too much of the wrong kind of cheese can increase your risk of cardiovascular distress, raise your cholesterol,
  • And increase your blood pressure.
  • Parmigiano-Reggiano is one of those cheeses which can be enjoyed without many of these worries, thanks to its low-calorie content and a few surprising health benefits.
  • Parmigiano-Reggiano is an excellent source of protein.
  • In an interview with Insider, registered dietician-nutritionist Leah Silberman said that parmesan is one of the healthier cheese options available, not only for its high protein, but also thanks to its natural vitamins,
  • Minerals, and probiotics.
  • Just a small amount of quality parmesan cheese can help you meet your daily protein intake, with one serving of Costco's Parmigiano-Reggiano offering 9 grams, or 18% of the daily value.
  • Pair a few pieces with other high-protein foods like turkey and chicken, and you'll hit your protein goals in no time.
