This better not awaken anything in me
Too late
Sigh... unzips pants
These images are almost perfectly arousing, they just need to get rid of the lady and I’ll be at full mast
Well, I'm not going to not daydream that maybe my little piece of parmesean came from one of those wheels. That's a lot of cheese - it's not like they're going to just throw that out.
Time to buy some swiss cheese
There seems to be a strategically placed hand blocking a parmesan grinder, probably for the best. But seriously, the other photo of her smiling and hugging the cheese like a giant stuffed animal is somehow heartwarming. It's cheese, brain. Thousands of dollars of fancy cheese.
And she's looking at the camera in a way that says, "I know you looked there."
So the money of Big Parma is behind her
Why does the website have this section? I am dying of laughter.
As a man of Italian heritage, I find this incredibly appealing on several levels
They'd make all their money back if they auctioned off those particular wheels
that third wheel will go for millions
and the feet ones too probably
America: I'm sponsored by soulless corporate conglomerates.
Italy: I'm sponsored by cheese!
America: tears up and salutes Italy
If I were parmesan I'd sponsor her too. She's the wheel deal.
That's going to get sold on the internet.
Oh to be a wheel of cheese in the embrace of an Olympic gymnast. Sigh Some dreams will never come true.
Did you know those wheels sweat oil? I hope they were wiped down before. And after, I guess.
They're fake, made of plastic
I really doubt that... Why would they go through the cost of producing a plastic version of their product when they could simply use the actual article? I worked in a cheese shop for years, these particular wheels are VERY durable - I legitimately can't think of any benefit in using a fake cheese wheel, aside from TheTetrapod's correct comment about these wheels sweating oil (which makes most people's skin breakout into acne) which can be easily and immediately solved by using a rag.
edit: and again, having worked closely with this exact cheese many many many times, that is exactly what they look like as whole wheels. I have zero reason to believe this is plastic.
Vegans: I’m not impressed.
You can't disabrie that she's gouda make a lot of money from this.
Cheddar, if you will.
Has reality got so bad that it is now aping Ai?
Big Parmesan is really getting their hooks into everything these days.
As it should, it's delicious.
cheese has never looked so good before
Shit, I should've become a gymnast...
I should have become cheese...
You're in luck, that joke is cheesy
I'd eat that cheese and I'm vegan.
Eh, I prefer Irish white cheddars myself. But, on the whole, cheese is probably one of the less-evil things out there doing sponsorships.
I approve this message.
Please tell me this means cheese rolling will become a new Olympic sport!

Oh yes there absolutely is video if you're curious.
she cute
She's the wheel deal!
Why is this so funny?
I find this post kind of chessy....and yes I will see myself out.
You gonna eat that?
Yes
She won gold before ever making it to Paris
That is a big chunk of cheese.
Why do I want cheese now?
Hang on a minute, Parmesan's a brand? Not just a name of dry Italian cheese?
Parmigiano Reggiano is a protected name like champagne is. To have the name it has to be produced with traditional methods and sourced from the traditional region, all of which is legally defined. They charge a premium for this, and some of it becomes quite expensive.
I didn't know a type of cheese could do business deals. I'm going to get sponsored by cheddar.
Those cheese wheels are heavy too, she makes it look easy to pick up
Wow.
Parma ftw! f**k Pharma!
Some tetracycline might help that
Tetracycline, sold under various brand names, is an oral antibiotic in the tetracyclines family of medications, used to treat a number of infections, including acne, cholera, brucellosis, plague, malaria, and syphilis.
What does this have to do with gymnasts sponsored by cheese?
Never heard of vaginal cheese?
That's why parmesan smells so bad
I take it you’ve only had green top shakers?
Hope she gets one of those cheese wheels dropped on her head. Go Vegan !
Those things are 90 pounds, so you want this woman to be killed for posing with cheese? Get help
Well yeah. She's daring to consume something from an animal. That's definitely one of the worst things a human can do. /s
When your stance is more extreme than PETA's, there may be an issue.
It’s worked for and on me

Which cheese fascinates you the most? And is there a fascination type? Are cow milk blue cheeses more fascinating than goat milk cheeses?

The prophecy was true!
