Best Answer

No Parmesan does not need to be kept in your refrigerator as it is a hard cheese and therefore should be dry but the cold in the fridge tends to over dry it but the choice is yours as you like which if you asked one hundred people how to store Parmesan cheese the result would be half and half on average but personally i keep it out of the fridge if its ready grated in a tub and on the cheese board covered with the lid for up to three weeks when its bought fresh r in a block and it would probably keep longer but you need only buy a small piece at a time which you will use within three to four weeks and you will ok eating it if you choose to keep it covered in your kitchen.

Absolutely it should be refrigerated! The lower temperature extends the life of the cheese. To extend the life of cheese, look at products like the cheese saver.

Label says "yep." I doubt it would kill you or anything if you didn't, but it doesn't take much fridge real-estate.
