not really European

Wdym by that ?

Switzerland is geographically in Europe but we are not part of the European Union. We don't want to share our cheese.

Didn't your cheese production become too clean to produce the legendary holes?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Most of our cheeses never had holes. The ones that did still have them. You should have a look at our famous (although not the best in my opinion) Emmental if you like a cheese with holes (or should I call it holy cheese?!)

Hmm that’s like the Indian reservations in Canada and the USA. Never thought about that before. Are they considered to be in Canada/usa? I’m pretty based off of watching Yellowstone that they get passports… anyway now I’m just rambling

Its not really like that at all. Switzerland is very much part of Europe and shares European culture and history with the rest of us. That person is just a little bit confused.

EUROPEAN (adjective) Belonging to or relating to Europe or its people.

That cheese got in your head.

Yeaaah maybe I missed some subtlety of the adjective, sorry.

Hopefully I can catch some of this cheese in my head with my tongue.

I'm not sure if that thought is hilarious or disgusting :D
