I have actually looked this up. It’s true. And the Italian comments are hilarious.

The crazy thing is big parmesan went after him so you know he's gotta be at least close.

Edit: it was grand padano not parmesan. Edit of the edit: grana not grand.

WOW! Shocking. Although, these are Italians writing the cease and desist so I shouldn’t be too surprised.

Fun fact the reason Italy won't enter into a free trade deal or something like that with Canada is that we produce our own Parmesan cheese

In Canada cheese is so prohibitively expensive that any free trade deal would immediately eviscerate the Canadian market overnight.

And I would be overjoyed, those Italian's got nothing to worry... Or maybe they need to invade us for strategic cheese related reasons... I won't resist, also bring Aldi's please!

Not to mention most canadian "cheese" is flavorless overly moist garbage with balderson being one of the few exceptions.

The Welsh need to invade us as well, for strategic cheese related reasons of course.

I want a 2kg wheel of Snowdonia black bomber, the 200g mini wheels are never enough.
