Someone that has an $87 food budget probably isn’t going to buy imported Italian cheese.
There’s some US-made “parmesan” that’s somewhat decent and quite a bit cheaper than the legit Italian stuff, just make sure you buy a block of it and not anything pre-grated, and that it doesn’t have any filler ingredients.
Some US-made parmesan is produced using similar techniques to Parmigiano Reggiano, they just can’t legally call it that since it’s not made in a specific area in Italy.
