| | Pecorino, Romano |
 | | Made of part-skim sheep’s milk, it is one of the oldest of Italian cheeses, already recorded as an exported variety in the 1st century A.D. Although it has been compared to Parmesan, the two cheeses have distinctly different flavors. |
 | | Hard cheeses and grating cheeses, such as the aged Pecorino Romano, are, like many European wines, a regulated product and major export; only those produced in specific regions may bear this name. |
 | | Romano is also produced in the United States, Canada, and other countries, to be used as a grating cheese, and is made from the milk of cows, sheep, or goats. |
