You guys always miss the point, we have your cheese, and our cheese, and synth cheese, and any other cheese you want. Imported European cheese? Yep. Craft cheeses from Wisconsin? Any kind you can think of. Cow, goat, buffalo, sheep, cashew, chicken, fire-ant, whatever. I can go to Costco and get a 72lb wheel of Parmigiano reggiano, aged 2 years, shipped to my door within a few days. I can go to town and visit a number of delis and get a pound of anything sliced fresh. I can go to the grocery chain store and get a presliced pound or go to their full in store deli for more options. If I'm having a burger I might go for the classic American cheese slices. We also have a cheese flavored product in a can that is good when you are tired of living. You have only high quality cheese because there isn't room on your tiny European shelf for the sheer variety of bullshit we also have.

...do you think supermarkets and online retail only exist in the US?

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Internet Europeans seem to think we don't have bakeries or breweries or dairy...ies... so it's only fair to assume the inverse.

No, but you guys seems to think we only are aware of craft singles and can cheese. That's our lowest level of cheese. I was trying to explain that despite your opinions, we actually do have food here.

Edit: Saying "we actually have that too" doesn't mean in any way "Europe has no grocery stores". I thought you guys had the good schools?

You literally said we have small shelves that can't have a wide range of food. Read your own comment lol

Did you even go to school?

[–] JungleJim@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I also said we had cheese made of fire ant milk. Google hyperbole, then get back to me.

Of course I went to school, I'm an American, where do you think I learned to bar the door from gunmen?

In other words, nothing you said had any point then

[–] JungleJim@sh.itjust.works 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Oh sorry for not being serious enough in the memes community. I'll be sure to bring my dissertation next time about how your mom sucked me good and hard through my jorts.

Aw sorry for upsetting you, little man. You have like, really cool supermarkets, or whatever it is you wanna hear

What about Wensleydale and cranberries. That's the best cheese

I hadn't heard of that kind but it's pretty! A quick search says I could get it at Walmart. I personally prefer not to shop there but that means it's probably available somewhere else. I'll be sure to try it some time, thank you for the tip
