Null said that you can’t find anything other than Cheddar, American, or Swiss at most American grocery stores. People argued that he was also wrong about quality, but most proved that he was a fucking Speedway shopping nigger who never even attempted to look for the cheese section in stores.
The quality varies. Generally I’d argue EU food is better quality because autistic French, Italian, and Spanish men bitched about their regional foods and enacted protectionist laws.
He was being very hyperbolic, but I know what he means. Literally the real ubiquitous cheeses in America are extremely bland, and they're extremely bland versions of already milder versions (except swiss, which is usually sold extremely mild in the USA). Access to cheese has definitely gotten better in the past two decades, but what they sell in grocery stores is almost always a much watered-down version of that type of cheese, mass produced.
There's so many other things with EU food culture that's hard to get into, like just
what normal people to snack on, that may be considered strange in the USA. The USA is obsessed with high-sugar, high-carb salty foods and prioritizes those flavors.
European food isn't even my favorite, it's Asian or East Asian... but American, Canadian, and especially the UK has the worst foods.
Null could have gone further and said pastries in Europe taste better too. Because America dumps a laughable high amount of sugar in everything, and the sweetness ruins some of the nuances of other flavors.
I just think America is terrible over food in general. Also, Americans tend to really deemphasize vegetables...
In Europe you don't need to go to a fancy supermarket like Whole Foods or Publix or whatever people went to to show off the big cheese selection. You can just go to Lidl or any other discounter and find 50 different kinds of cheese that are half the price as what you're paying. No matter how much of a rural shithole you live in, there will be cheese and a bakery that has fresh bread (not made from frozen pre-made dough by a minimum wage earning teenager but by actual bakers) every 100m. There are a lot of rural places in the US that only have Walmart as an option to shop at so they are stuck with goyshreds and goyloaf.
People keep saying "nuh-uh, my grocery store carries that cheese!" when it tastes about as accurate as you'd expect bootleg imitation Coca-Cola to taste in Cameroon.
