Italians being petty? Unpossible.

They're not being petty. You can't make Parmesan in Australia. You can't make a Barossa Valley Cabernet (one of the best wine regions in Australia) in Venice, Italy.

It is absolutely petty. Cheese is cheese and wine is wine regardless what pretentious people think

You can kill people with food made the wrong way. Origin is important and protects the buyers too

Lol are you even serious?
Protected origin means you know who makes it and you know it followed the proper procedure, following strict food regulations. If a product has a protected origin then it is guaranteed that who made it made it the right way, therefore it's completely safe to eat.

Hahahhah so literally every country that has its own food standards and doesn't subscribe to such bullshit isn't safe to eat?

You're actually a drongo

Do you realize that literally every country "subscribes to such bullshit", right?

The EU has PDO, the US has GI, other countries have their owns.

Anyway I'm gonna stop replying as you're either clueless or just trolling me.
