How do decide which side you want? Left? Right?

Always buy the left side of the cow. The left is soft and tender because it has never worked hard. It just lies around eating while the right side is doing all the work.

Crazy part is on a recent vacation we were in Italy and Spain. We always bring back a lot of cheese, olive oil and that sort of thing when we are there. Wheel of parmigiano reggiano = 50 euro, so about $75 Canadian is what it cost me.

Same sort of prices at the market in Barcelono on La Rambla. Although a leg of cured ham will run you about 150 euro.

We get fleeced on imported food. It can't cost that much to import container loads of cheese from Italy that it has to be marked up that much.

It does when you have countless middle man making MORE money than producers!!!
