Oh I don't think I'll get involved in this conversation, finally I'm neutral.
Unfortunately there’s no such thing as neutral at Christian Chat. Don’t ever agree with anyone.
Only Americans?

He's Swiss. They're always neutral...Unfortunately there’s no such thing as neutral at Christian Chat. Don’t ever agree with anyone.
However we have many more types of cheese. We have hundreds of varieties, and each with its own regional characteristics. The one with the holes is called Emmentaler. And that's the only one with holes, and I don't even like it that much.Cameron143 made a funny comment about how he feels ripped off when he buys Swiss cheese, because of the holes.
In the USA all swiss cheese has holes. I can't tell if they are cut out by a machine or made naturally during the cheese making process, but people would not buy any cheese that is labeled Swiss if it did not have holes. That's not authentic!
It's kind of like how over here in the USA we have many different kinds of burgers, and most of them, the vast majority in fact, have nothing to do with McDonald's junk. A lot of us actually look down on McDonald's burgers and regard them as just short of poison.
Texas Longhorn steak, Sir, not burgers. Down here we ain’t much for burgers. Steak it is.

But that's not authentic, it's simply wrong!
Here, it would probably lead to a legal dispute if a cheese manufacturer would made holes in its non-Emmentaler cheese. But the whole thing reminds me of my visit to Canada. "Swiss cheese" everywhere, but when I looked more closely at the packaging...
Who can spot the mistake?
I don't know much about cheese making, but I'm pretty sure they didn't ship Canadian milk all the way over to switzerland, make the cheese, then ship it back to canada.But that's not authentic, it's simply wrong!

That’s not uncommon, generally speaking. If you can squeeze an extra cent per pound in those massive amounts of cheese, it pays off sending ingredients halfway across the world and back. I’m not smart enough to find a better way myself.

And now I really want to know what Swiss cheese
from a real Swiss cow 
would taste like...
Yes, that would be really crazy. I had to laugh when I read that, and yes, I took the packaging home with me to show my friends and family, because no one else would have believed me. The very nice and kind family I stayed with during my trip explained to me that “Swiss cheese” is not legally protected in Canada and is therefore often used as a “seal of quality” to convey high quality. Sure, but definitely not in this case!
Or maybe they found a farmer here who has Canadian cows.
Then both would be true again... 
I have some shredded provolone in my fridge partially made with yak milk.

Beats me. I didn't find it at walmart.Where did they find a yak in Tennessee?!
I must have missed that post. It's an absolute wonder what that peanut butter machine can do to whole peanuts. And the other nuts are great "buttered up" like that too. One particularly useful friend who loved to eat with my family would spend 20 minutes getting the next store-bought jar ready, something I never took the time to do. We still tend to pour off the oil and just deal with the peanut butter getting stiffer as we got to the bottom of the jar.

Underrated comment.
Imagines one rounds the next aisle and sees a yak in front of them.
Not the yak, just the yak milk.Underrated comment.

Actually I got this cheese at the auction house. Never know what you'll find at the auction house. Fresh peaches from a tree across town, a 2010 Ford truck, an industrial grade cotton candy machine... And cheese made from cow and yak milk.
Also, howdy Parable and welcome to the forum.
It doesn't include all 3 Swiss languages? ;-)But that's not authentic, it's simply wrong!
