No Cacio Di Roma At Whole Foods

Bummer. It seems Whole Foods has dropped Cacio di Roma from its cheese selections, at least at the Pearl Street store (and if Pearl doesn't have it, it's going to be hard to find it anywhere else on the planet, excluding Italy of course). Cacio di Roma is key to making Mario Batali's bavette cacio e pepe pasta dish at home, as I'd planned to do tonight. I bought some extra Parmigiano Reggiano as a sub, but I'm pretty sure it will be disappointing. Oh well, at least the snow is melting out there, before more comes in on Wednesday.
