this is madness and I would argue it's the cheeses that you buy rather than "cheese as a whole", have you ever tried any imported cheeses? the cheaper options in a US supermarket are usually Wisconsin-made imitations that are great at being a lot cheaper than the real deal but flavor wise are just watered down imitations. I can't imagine not being able to taste the nutty umami of a Parmigiano Reggiano, the bright briny-ness of a Greek Feta, what about Smoked Gouda?? tastes more like BBQ than American cheese lol

I mean you're probably right. I don't know anything about cheese really so not sure if I've had proper imported cheese or not. But yeah, I can't relate to your flavor descriptions lol the closest is when I can taste the jalapenos they add to some cheeses (for example). This is probably why I am not particularly fond of cheese though lol
