It’s no gouda.
A 74-year-old dairy farmer got creamed during a meltdown at his sprawling cheese warehouse in northern Italy on Sunday night when thousands of wheels of hard parmesan-style formaggio collapsed on top of him.
Giacomo Chiapparini, the owner of the eponymous Chiapparini cheese-making company in Lombardy, was killed in the freak accident when giant shelves holding the 90lb wheels of grana padano cheese suddenly buckled.
Chiapparini was using a machine to rotate and clean the cheese wheels at various stages of ripening when one of the metal shelves caved, creating a “domino effect,” firefighter Antonio Dusi told the news agency AFP.
The storehouse, which had been stocked with 25,000 cheese wheels, was left in shreds.
Thousands of 90-pound cheese wheels, arranged in stacks of 20, tumbled to the ground from long, narrow shelves — some towering at 33 feet high — burying Chiapparini alive.

“It’s no gouda. A 74-year-old dairy farmer got creamed during a meltdown at his sprawling cheese warehouse”
Comical. Some millenial New York girl who has never worked a day in her life, makes a bunch of jokes about a hardworking man who was still doing physical work at 74 and died on the job.
No class.

Saw an episode of Midsomer Murder, where a lady was murdered, with a wheel of cheese.

Wouldn’t have been so bad if only he cut the cheese.

The storehouse, which had been stocked with 25,000 cheese wheels, was left in shreds. Shredded parmesan is all that was left?
It should have a-cured to him to be more careful.
To: Red Badger
He got ‘cheesed’ to death—ref. that South Park cheesing episode...
