"Gorgonzola" is both a cheese and the supposed original source of the cheese. The cheese Gorgonzola is a veined Italian "blue" cheese, made from whole cow's and/or goat's milk. The comune of Gorgonzola in the province of Milan, in Lombardy, northern Italy claims to be the the origin of the cheese - reportedly having been producing it since 879 A.D - although some other localities in the region dispute this.

Gogonzola is a blue cheese originating from Gorgonzola in the province of Milan in Italy. Real Gorgonzola cheese uses the mold Penicilium glaucum and must be made in the Gorgonzola region.
