Locatelli Pecorino Romano cheese
DH is making meatballs and sauce and used the last of the romano cheese for the meatballs. I just ran over to Pathmark, the only grocery store open till 4pm and I could NOT believe it! $10 for 8 oz!!!!!!!!   I JUST bought some a few weeks ago at Stop & Shop for $7! What the heck??!  why did it go up so much?

Re: Locatelli Pecorino Romano cheese
The only thing I can think of is that if you had a Pathmark card you would get it for less?
It's also Easter and maybe they jack up the prices for the holiday?

You can get it at Costco for much less. I buy it and grind it myself!!
there is nothing like a good Locatelli cheese though!!

I really hope that BJ's sells it. I don't know why I never thought to look. we go through it like crazy around here!
I bought something else today, Gabriella by Lotito pecorino romano cheese I hope it's good. I just could not justify spending $10 on 8 oz

That's why I go into Arthur Ave and buy a huge wedge...it's so much cheaper that way and last forever.

Get a grater and buy the chunk. Still expensive cheese, but worth the money.
