Summary

When you think of Italian food, cheese immediately springs to mind. And that's because Italy is one of the world's top cheese producers, making hundreds of unique varieties from similar basic ingredients. While some Italian cheeses may be familiar, how they taste is likely to be very different (and much more delicious) than what you're used to.

Foodie Olivia Windsor joins us this week to walk us through eight cheeses you should try when you visit Italy. You'll learn about their history, production methods and where to find them. So when you finally make it to Italy, you're ready to seek out the local formaggio!
