What to do in Rome when you are on a diet?

More or less this is what I asked the nice young man behind the counter of La Tradizione, my favourite cheese shop in Rome (behind Vatican City).
I told him my husband had decreed a no cheese diet despite the fact (or maybe because of it) that we are both ardent cheese lovers.
So what could one - a desperate one to boot - do?
And, besides, it was almost time for a Fête du Fromage,over at Loulou's and I had already let the previous one go unattended...

He confirmed the conclusion I already had arrived at.
Divorce.
Or failing that, fresh goat cheese.
So I went for the cheese.



This is a Caprino di Fattoria (in french: fromage de chêvre fermier, although this one is Italian).
You can find plenty of fresh goat cheeses in the Italian supermarkets nowadays, but they are rather tasteless.
This on the other hand...
( It was the real thing. )
