Curious Facts CONTEST#8 - More wired cheese facts Cheese worth more than crypto ๐Ÿ’ด๐Ÿ’ต๐Ÿ’ถ๐Ÿ’ท ๐Ÿ˜Ž - There is a cheese bank in Italy

in #curiousfacts โ€ข 7 years ago


There is a Bank in Italy that does their business in cheese and it is a multi-million dollar business called Credito Emiliano. Yes, I said cheese and not just any cheese the bank only works with Parmigiano Reggiano also known as the king of cheese. They work closely with the cheese producers and farmers in the Italian region Emilia Romagna. If a farmer needs a loan for new animals or machinery they go to this bank and give a wheel or two as collateral. So why Parmigiano Reggiano well a wheel of this cheese coasts a few thousand dollars and the cheese needs to be aged for 18 to 36 months that's why it is treated as a long-term investment.

The bank has a special warehouse where the cheese is stored filled with over 300 000 wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano worth around 160 000 000 Euros.

Maybe it is a good idea to invest in cheese now rather than crypto :-) Let me know your ideas about a cheese investment in the comments below.

@river-island they don't call it the king of cheese for nothing ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Totally agree ๐Ÿ˜Š

Delicious!

They don't call it the King of cheese for nothing :)

That is so cool; I'd love to be locked in that bank for a few hours with a bottle of red wine :)

hahah uuu that would be great :D

Right??? :)

You could join me but you'd have to bring your own wine because I like that as much as cheese! (I think there'd be enough cheese to share though haha)

Maybe I should've store cheese rather than eating, but cheese is so damn tasty. Didn't know about this warehouse and the numbers are... wow!

HAHAH @tonac I should have done the same :) Yes numbers are WHAT ??? we should invest in cheese not crypto :D

Mom look, my post is worth 46 CHS

I would be a bad cheese investor, I often go hungry at night - would eat my own portofolio :)

Trebalo bi ovako neลกto za prลกute otvorit :D
