Whoever is making antiabuse commercials can save their money. We’re abusing people and and we’re never going to stop abusing people.
the dairy industry is horrifically cruel and destructive, which is why they can not advertise their products with openness or transparency of the process.
They don’t want you to buy “cheese”, they want you to buy “my brand of cheese”
The crazy thing is cheese is so common in the US because the government did what government does and got involved in the dairy industry because of prohibition and things got out of hand and now we have stuffed crust pizza and the cheesy gordita crunch.
Those cheese caves aren’t going to empty themselves.
Gonna be honest, can’t say I’ve ever seen a cheese commercial before
Wasn’t there a cheese commercial that got popular here on lemmy during the Olympics because it featured an athlete? Hmm, maybe I’m confusing something…
Does velveeta count? Personally, I say no
Velveeta: Bringing Washington style gridlock to your colon.
How do you expect to find out about more obscure cheeses if they are not advertised in some way? You’d never stumble across Stinking Bishop or Epoisses de Bourgogne or Pule.
- Wow, what’s that moldy in the corner?
- It’s not even cheese, sir, we didn’t clean the stall good enough
- Can I still have 500g, please?

OTOH… I’m not buying cheese and I’m never going to start buying cheese. ;) Equally applicable.
The only cheeses I refuse to even try are maggot and frumunda.
Frumunda sounds delicious. Is it Italian?
Googles it
oh. oh no.
I refuse anything by Kraft or anything individually sliced and wrapped in plastic. Imo it’s not even cheese
Its actually just watered down cheese with like two other ingredients which are common food additives. This is a great vid of someone making their own ‘american cheese’
Even that cheese has its place in a burger or cheese and onion toastie.
They’re just a solidified cheese beshmel. It’s cheddar, milk and binders to keep it solid. At least the good quality singles. Some of the cheaper ones are made with oils and have no actual cheese. Those ones behave and taste like plastic.
One time we bought a big bag of preshredded mozzarella from one of the big box stores, so we had like five pounds of it. We made lasagna. Instead of melting, it browned. Crisped. We looked closer. It was some imitation cheese.
Gotta say tho, lasagna with some of the cheese crispy and some melted? That was a good week
Same, same. I have standards. They might be low, but they are there.
My Sardinian friend swears it delicious. If it was offered I think I would have to try it just to say I did it.
The frumunda or the maggot?
Ha, maggot. Although he is Italian which, I believe, is where fromunda originated. Perhaps he can give me a sample next time I see him.
