minus-square🍉 Albert 🍉linkfedilink2•8 months agoWow three brands of cheddar!!! That’s so much. Look at the Monty python sketch for what would be expected a normal cheese shop on Europe, a normal supermarket might have half that variety.
minus-square@chaogomu@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•8 months agoNot brands, types. Mild, sharp, and extra sharp. If we’re talking brands, there are half a dozen. And again, I’m in a bit of a food desert. If I felt like driving for an hour or so, I could actually get every cheese from that sketch, except Casu Marzu. Interesting how your example of a European cheese shop, had no cheese at all.
minus-square🍉 Albert 🍉linkfedilink2•8 months agoThat’s the joke. But that variety in a store isn’t that rare
minus-square@chaogomu@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•8 months agoAnd I could drive for an hour and get much the same variety. But even in a food desert, I have dozens of options, from soft cheeses to hard. I can visit the in store deli for even more options. Because cheese ships incredibly well with modern refrigeration.
minus-square🍉 Albert 🍉linkfedilink2•8 months agoYou’re stuck in a loop, I witnessed a handful of European countries, and US, both big cities and Midwest. You’re defending as if I said “there’s no chesse in the US”. But what I said is “US has a poor cheese culture compared to Europe”. If you can’t tell the difference between those statements, then there’s no point in talking. Because if you did, you wouldn’t be arguing
