NSFW for both lactose intolerants and cheese lovers.
I’m a bit of both.
Most Cheddar in Britain is not that colour (orange) at all, in my experience.
Only Fromage de Herve, Passendale and Limburger represented? ‘Angry Belgian noises’
this map makes it looks like the spread of cheese diversity is consistant across Europe.
on behalf of the more than 1200 unlisted french cheeses, i would like to disagree.
Blessed are the cheese makers!
Somebody asked Charles DeGaulle how he intended to unify the French after the Second World War, and he replied:
“How can you govern a country with 246 varieties of cheese?”
The *sõir* shown in Northern Estonia is actually common only in Southern Estonia.
No double gloucester! Thats one of my favourites for melting.
Need a bigger map for all them cheeses.
Havarti is… DANISH ? My all life is a lie, I thought it was mexican (I live in Canada)
*sad squeeky halloumi noises*
I know you have to make arguable choices when doing this kind of map, and that the geographical location is never totally accurate because you have to fit things where you can but:
Reblochon is definitely produce to the north of where Beaufort is produced so why not swap these two on the map ?
For a hungarian speciality, include pálpusztai maybe
Missed opportunity to put Iceland on with Skyr.
WHERE IS EZINE ????? Its supposed to be near to gallipoli
Cornwall is properly left out here, we have some lovely cheeses to choose from like Yarg which is wrapped in nettle leaves.
I’m Hungarian, what is ranolder, and where pálpusztai?
As a Swiss Person I’m offended at the meagre choice on this map!
There is something called “brunost” or brown cheese in Norway. It’s technically not cheese but people still count it as cheese

It just struck me that the popular Swedish cheese Grevé is just a translation of the French Comté. Even with the added accent mark.
Fun fact: the Sardinian cheese is cheese with live maggots inside, and the name “casu marzu” translates to rotten/rotting cheese
edit: by the way, we have other types of cheese, just saying so people don’t think we’re weird
>Rathgore
I didn’t know there were any cheeses from south Dublin
Isn’t raejuusto just cottage cheese?
As a Swede, I just calmly want to ask: Var i *helvete* är prästosten?
I’ve heard of like 8 of these. All the fun cars and good cheeses never make it across the pond.
We’re gonna need a bigger map
Então e o queijo flamengo caralho?
As a spanish speaking person I feel obligated to inform you that one of the spanish cheeses is literally called “Titty cheese” which I assumed is called after it’s shape
I dont think túró is counted as cheese by anyone, even if technically possibly a cheese. And I especially must protest against replacing trappista with it! Yes, túró is very popular, but it is most commonly a dessert thing, while we have a clear most popular cheese in the form of trappista.
I demand a remapping!
Here‘s a cheese map of America: sliced cheese, block cheese, shredded cheese and string cheese

[Branza de burduf in pine bark](http://www.casacugemene.ro/s/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Coaja-Brad.jpg) is just absolutely amazing!
VÄSTERBOTTENSOST supremacy 🇸🇪 💪 🇸🇪 💪🇸🇪 💪
There’s way more cheese in France than on this entire map
No Idiazabal, what a travesty
No mention of Tipperary; I guess it’s a type of cheddar. Love that stuff.
Västerbottenost is so damn good!
Never heard of Dovedale. Surely it should be Wensleydale for Northern England.
What is equivalent of Polish Twaróg in other countries?
“túró” is not cheese.

Why the fuck is there a picture of orange American cheddar there? Cheddar from around here is a pale yellow colour [like so](https://tcs.imgix.net/2020/08/IMG_0914.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&ixlib=php-3.3.0)
Aham…

What, no Wensleydale?
Açores needs to be included.
