Trung Phan(@TrungTPhan):The biggest cheese banks in Italy store 300,000+ wheels of Parmesan. Dairy farmers use cheese as collateral and get loans up to 80% of market value. At ~$1,000 per wheel, that’s $200m+ in loans (banks seize and sell cheese if farmer can’t pay back). Best part: banks use automated machines that brush and turn the cheese wheels everyday to keep them fresh. *** Vid link:
