All the supermarkets should have it but they may call it something like Grated Italian Hard Cheese as it's not strictly parmesan!0

I seem to remember that a couple of years ago it vanished off the shelves - it's now been replaced with something that physically resembles Parmesan but tastes nothing like it. Was it something to do with the fact that the genuine article is made with unpasteurised milk? Maybe I dreamt it - not sure?0 -

No your right, it disappear and it was probably the reason you state here.0 -
Dried (faux) Italian Cheese smells like sick _pale_ normally sits in the area of the pasta.
You can buy from the chilled section ready grated in the cheese section in bags next to the wedges of Parmesan.
Better to by the wedge of the real stuff and grate as you need it them wrap back up and keep in the fridge. There really is no comparison and having the real thing you can add grated or finely sliced to many dishes including salads.
Pot - Italian Grated Parmesan 100G - (£20.00/kg)
Bag - Grated Parmesan Cheese 50G - (£25.00/kg)
Wedge - Parmigiano Reggiano 200G - (£16.25/kg)Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it.0 -
I buy a wedge from Aldi, then grate it all and store it in a tub in the freezer. Then when we need some I put a serving into a ramekin. A couple of years back a local shop that sold stuff approaching the sell-by was selling wedges off for 50p!! I bought 6 and grated the whole lot at once (in processor!) kept in a tub in the freezer and it lasted us about a year!! Sadly the said shop (I think i was called Captain Bargain) has since closed down, which is a real shame as I had some excellent bargains there!"If you dream alone it will remain just a dream.

I haven't seen grated parmesan for ages but I've seen another hard cheese, pecorino romano, which is made from sheep's milk.0

You can definitely buy 'grated hard cheese' in Asda - above the dried pasta usually, near the sauces. I don't particularly like it though; I find you need loads to get any flavour and before you can use the tub up it goes hard and dry in the bottom!
A wedge of real parmesan I much prefer and lasts for ages in the fridge. You can buy it relatively cheaply in Aldi.0 -
