Cool story, but the EU eats more cheese per capita than the us. Every country in Europe just did the same thing the us did, know that cheese is delicious. No narrative required.

You are missing the point. In 1950 we ate 7.7lbs of cheese a year, as of 2022 we eat 41.8lbs of cheese a year. That is 0.33oz or one half a slice of Craft Single a day to 1.8oz or 3 slices per day.
In 1950s Germany they ate 8.6lbs per person per year, in 2022 it was 54.2lbs.
Yes, cheese is delicious, but you don't see that type of increase without considerable industry effort.
Not sure those numbers back some prohibition ice cream conspiracy to make everyonelove cheese. But industry certainly met demand throughout industrialization. It's sold to us like everything else, and maybe we shouldn't buy so much of it, but all it really had to do was be awesome.

The second video hits what I was talking about, the first video establishes the dairy demand. You can only watch the 2nd video and understand it. Not exactly a conspiracy, more of a downstream consequence of government antics and capitalism being successful.
I understand and know about this stuff. But thanks for youtube vids. Gruyère has been making cheese continuously since the 12th century and is now available worldwide. That happened without this.
