The Cabrales blue cheese out of northern Spain now holds the title as the almost five-pound wheel sold for $32,000 dollars. That comes to more than $6,000 dollars per pound.
The record-breaking cheese contains cow, sheep, and goat milk. It was left to mature for eight months in a cave that was just 44 degrees.
