\u201cMy \u2018sacred wedge\u2019 was my way of cementing the birth of a dream\u2014my own cheese shop\u2014that was over two years in the making. I decided a long time ago that I would get that image for my opening party, because, like the tattoo says, \u2018Cheese for Life.\u2019 No turning back now!\u201d<\/p>\n

\nArtist: Justin Urban-Styles<\/h3>\n

\u201cI always believed that if I got a tattoo it would have to be something I felt passionate about and connected to deeply. When I had my cheese epiphany five years ago, I knew I had found that very thing. The traditional Parmigiano-Reggiano knives are a representation of the heritage that\u2019s developed with cheese during its thousands of years of existence. Also, they just look badass.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nLocation: Taylor\u2019s Market, Sacramento
\nArtist: Wes, Forever Tattoo<\/h3>\n

\u201cI got the tattoos after being a cheesemonger for six months and surviving my first holiday season. That\u2019s when I knew I wanted to work with cheese forever!\u201d<\/p>\n

\nArtist: Max Ackermann<\/h3>\n

\u201cAround 1997 I decided that no matter what happened in the rest of my life, my relationship with cheese\u2014professional and personal\u2014was significant enough to merit a permanent mark on my body.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted a tattoo that captured the spirit of the beautiful animals we get cheese from!\u201d<\/p>\n

\nArtist: Dave C. Walin<\/h3>\n

\u201cGood food tastes like symphonies; great cheese is philharmonic and should be honored. When I committed to a career in cheese, I got a tattoo showing its life cycle and highlighting my favorites. Without cheese my life would stink.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Christina<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Subject: Christina Fleming, specialist\/buyer
\nLocation: Whole Foods Market, Louisville
\nArtist: Tim Rupp<\/h3>\n

\u201cI got my tattoo after about five years of working in the cheese industry; I decided it was time to profess my love forever. I had also been told by a close friend\/cheesemonger that they doubted I could get a realistic cheese tattoo, and I just had to prove them wrong! I can\u2019t wear short sleeves without having someone ask me about it, but I don\u2019t mind, because I always have time to talk cheese.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nArtist: True Blue Tattoo<\/h3>\n

\u201cMy cheese tattoo is an ode to many things. It represents the love I have for the company that I work for, the product that I work with, and, most of all, my team of coworkers.\u201d \u2014Nicole Becerra<\/p>\n

\u201cMontgomery\u2019s has been my favorite cheese for years. Once we got into a discussion at the shop about what our desert island cheese would be, and after several grueling days of debate, I settled on Monty\u2019s. About a year later, I got to visit Manor Farm (where it\u2019s produced). What an experience for a young cheese nerd! That\u2019s when I knew my love of this cheese was going to last forever.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFiore Sardo is perhaps my all-time favorite cheese. It\u2019s a true testament to ancient Roman ingenuity, and what better way to commemorate this gem than to have it hammered onto my chest? It\u2019s a cheese with wings, and it\u2019s funny. Ladies love it, and men wish they had the nerve to get one of their very own.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
