You can buy a block of cheese that weighs as much as a small child and it's appropriately named the "Mother Loaf".

Tillamook County Creamery Association (TCCA) — or Tillamook, a dairy product manufacturer — is selling a 40-pound hunk of cheese for a limited time to celebrate National Cheddar Day.

40 lb  Block of cheddar cheese

Instead of slicing up or shredding the chunk of cheese like they normally would, the company is selling the behemoth as-is.

On February 13, just in time for Valentine's Day, you can buy a massive block of sharp yellow cheddar on Tillamook's brand new online shop

If you're looking for a last-minute V-day gift for the cheese-lover in your life, this is it. 

And if you want to throw in a little something extra, the brand is also selling wearable cheese swag like cheddar tie-dye sweatshirts and cheddar lounge shorts. 

"We like to say that we obsess over the details of our cheddar," said Jill Allen, director of product excellence at TCCA and an American Cheese Society Certified Cheese Professional.

Tillamook's "Cheddar Capsule" launches at 8 a.m. PST on February 13, where you can buy the "Mother Loaf" for $112.
