Whole Foods Market Presents "Parmageddon!"

Witness glory as we crack our way into the Guinness Book of World Records!

Saturday March 9th

2PM CST

Who doesn't love free cheese samples? Join us in our stores on Saturday March 9, 2013 at 2pm CST as we simultaneously crack and sample over 400 wheels of authentic Parmigiano Reggiano across the US, Canada and the UK. Plus we'll have food pairings and more!

Our cheesemongers take cracking these wheels very seriously! There is a centuries-old art to opening the cheese wheels by using official tools (five different types of knives) so the internal crystalline structure and crumbly texture is left intact.

St. Pat’s Beer and Food Tasting

Come on in to Whole Foods Market and enjoy a Taste of something Irish.  The Irish have observed St. Patrick’s as a holiday for over 1,000 years. On St. Patrick's Day, which falls during the season of Lent, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon. Lenten prohibitions against the consumption of meat were waived and people would dance, drink and feast--on the traditional meal of Irish bacon and cabbage. Whether you are Irish, celebrate Lent, or just enjoy celebrating St. Pat’s day, stop into WFM to get a taste of the holiday!
