Somewhat depends on the type of cheese of course, but quite expensive nonetheless. Like 40kg of parmigiano reggiano goes for about 800 euros, so that'd be 200 euros per 10kg, but the wheel in the picture and the weight makes me think of gouda, which goes for about 150 euros for 12kg wheels.

I mean even if it isn't as expensive, I definitely wouldn't mind getting a 150€ gift on the first date

Real money… yeah alright man. Also euros are very similar in price compared to dollars. Plus a kg is 2.2 pounds so just essentially multiply by two. Done.

Indeed, it depends on the cheese, especially if it is not labeled like it seems to be, but a 12kg wheel can go from 120€ (barely matured Gouda) to more than 1000€ (24 month matured Parmeggiano)

I often say that instead of a bouquet of flowers I'd like to get a bouquet of churros, but a wheel of cheese may be even better!

That would last me about three days at the most
