GoatSpotting: Testa Dura Goat Cheese
Thanks so much to friend and faithful reader Jill for sending in this magnificent advertisement for goat cheese, as spotted in the Italian newspaper Leggo:
Testa Dura goat cheese!
I’m not sure there’s a better brand name for goat products than “Testa Dura” — hard head — in Italian.
It’s extra-special to me because besides being a great description of a goat’s literal hard head and stubborn personality, it’s also what people from Calabria, the toe of Italy’s boot where I live, are known as — “teste dure” or hardheads — which is why I’ve also used it as my screen name on Expats in Italy for years.
Yes, we calabrese sure can be stubborn, but maybe that’s why I get along so well with goats — takes one to know one? Kindred hard heads!
Thanks so much for thinking of us, Jill!
Remember to send in your GoatSpotting photos as you come across them & I’ll publish them here!

I love that you published it here, it was fun to spot the other day! xo (PS – I have no idea why you could not tag me…boh! FB has been strange today…)
I tried with a couple other friends just out of curiosity, and it wasn’t letting me tag some other people either — seems like it would only let me tag a page there for a while. Boh. Anyhoo happy you got to see it here
