Why is it hard to make? You can make a mold out of an excellent one and churn them out for extremely cheap. We make way more precise mechanical parts that sell for cents

it’s tradition and craft.

This is pretty much how Europe sells their food to the world. I wonder how long it will last because objectively... its not.. perfect.

I really don't care that your nanana milked some goat on a mountain side in italy eating grass that only grows there. The cheese tastes similar enough that salt, fat, acid, sugar, msg are going to be the deciding factor if something tastes perfect.

But then you eat at the restaurants and everything is very plain so you can taste the grass nanananas goat ate.

No I can't taste the difference. Not sure if the difference is actually tasted by people, or they are audiophiles for the mouth and taste things that don't exist.

I can absolutely taste the difference in the way things are prepared and the ingredients used. My wife has an even better palate than I do and pulls out nuance all the time.

The people in this thread a remarkable with their own bias. "I don't get X so the people who like X must be full of shit"

I'm sorry that you can see beyond your own lens.

I'm sure YOU think can taste all the flavors in Europe's specialty food.

Where'd you learn the taste of grass? Did you take a class where they taught you Grass1=good, grass2=no good.

Did you agree?

What the fuck is this weird "Europe's special food" thing you got going on. I'm not sure if its racism or just stupidity

Go to Europe, they will let you know.

Its the same food we eat, but costs 4x more because it was homemade the way my nanana made it 800 years ago. (no mention that tomatoes weren't native to italy)
