An Italian cheese maker died this week after thousands of cheese wheels fell and crushed him in his warehouse.
"The family, his wife Angela and two children, cannot understand what happened," Bortolo Ghislotti, president of the local agricultural district, told Italian outlet Il Giorno. "But now we are looking for some colleague willing to keep all the wheels… which otherwise would have to be thrown out."
Ghislotti compared the damage to what happened to "the king of cheeses" following an earthquake in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy in 2012. The earthquake damaged the warehouses of the Parmigiano-Reggiano consortium, which held 360,000 wheels of cheese costing over $200 million.Chiappriani had helped out the consortium at that time, taking 10,000 of the wheels to conserve them and limit the already catastrophic losses. reported.
