[edit] Moved comment from article

Contrary to its name, Pecorino Romano cheese was first created on Sardinia. Like othger people said before, this cheese is very salty. It is used n pasta, Italian meats, and on anything else that is Italian except pastries.

[edit] Painful?

Removed It is a hard cheese, and is painful to bite into. as I can only imagine this applies to people with no teeth.--JBellis 19:34, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Birthplace of Pecorino Romano is Rome

The Production of Pecorino in Sardinia started after 1884, when in Rome the city council forbade the salting and aging of cheese inside the city limit. The pizzicaroli (sellers of cheese and sausages) decided to sue the city against this decision and, after losing the trial, moved part of production to Sardinia. alex2006 11:53, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Actually, "Pecorino romano" (small "R") should be the correct title, as that's how it's written in Italian. Thanks. 205.228.73.13 14:03, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
