    Sadly the reports of angry Italians are somewhat embellished. Curd nerds is real however.

    What did happen is him removing a video where he was explaining how he made something that tasted like "parmesan", because the Parmesan lawyers sent him a cease and desist letter

    I'm pretty sure it was actually Grana Padano.

    Yup. Grana Padano.

    edit: honestly, fuck PDOs. Or as Australia calls them, GIs (geographical indications) and CTMs (certification trade marks). They're such utter bullshit. I don't know whether they actually had legal legs to stand on with him calling it "Grana Padano–style", or if the "style" puts him legally in the clear. It's bullshit either way, but it's extra bullshit if even adding the "style" doesn't clear it.

    Parmigiano Reggiano? Uh, yeah, Italians take that shit very seriously. I mean, it's illegal worldwide to name your cheese Parmigiano Reggiano unless it is made in that region under strict regulations. There's entire international treaties written about this.

    Yeah, that's acknowledged at the beginning of the video. Tangentially related, did you hear about the time the Dutch Belgians destroyed a shipment of American beer because the brand's slogan is "the champagne of beers"?
    Edit: very tired.

    That's wild. Why would the Dutch import High Life? It's certainly one of America's more tolerable lagers, but it's still like sex in a canoe.

    Great question. If I understood correctly, the purchaser/importer was German in Germany, but it's unclear what the intended destination was or why they'd import that instead of selecting a domestic/EEA option.
    Edit: tired.

    Lol, the audacity of some cunts.
    Oh im from a region that makes excellent X so clearly i am the moral authority expert of the subject and you are not showing the proper respect blah blah.
    Mate its fuckin cheese, like he said enjoy it how ya want (or dont in your case) and bugger off.

    If i want to spread caviar on a maccas cheese burger and pair it with a french bubbly then i bloody well will, your snooty opionions wont taint my enjoyment, and you can enjoy the cheese the way you want; paired with a side of self entitlement, un-qualified judgment and a glass of your own farts to quaff.

    The word is fuck. You don’t need to be afraid of the word fuck. It’s just a happy, colorful little word and we should all embrace it.

    Say it with me everyone:

    fuck

    Now on the other hand, these absurd c*** n*** slurs should be blurred and unheard.

    I sometimes find it interesting to contemplate how best to treat swear words. One the one hand, the thing that seems most obvious to me is to just say "theyre just words to express frustration or anger at something. Those are real and valid emotions, and its silly to treat expletives like theyre morally wrong to say somehow, or like its a bad thing if children learn them, etc." On the other hand, part of the appeal to using them is that they feel at least a bit taboo, allowing a sentiment like "I feel so upset with this situation that I'm going to break this social rule to show it". If theres no taboo at all, which you get when they're used all the time and entirely casually, they no longer serve that purpose very well and people start looking for new things that feel a little bit transgressive to say. Which paradoxically implies that there isnt a point in saying them unless youre not "allowed" to say them, except they cant be too offensive to say either or they'll feel disproportionate and rude.

    My English teacher had a short lesson on this word. Can use it anywhere in every possible way. "Fucking fuck is fucked." "What the fuck is that fucking fuck." And be grammatically correct. Told the class "It's an amazing word and wish we can use it normally, but don't tell anyone I taught you this."

    Dude was strict too, so in his honor I say fuck everyday casue fuck it! Why the fuck not. Don't like it, fuck you. It's a fucking word, for fuck's sake... fuck.

    One of the most interesting words in the English language is the word "fuck."

    It can be used as:

    As a transitive verb: "John fucked Mary."

    As an intransitive verb: "Mary was fucked by John."

    As a noun: "Mary is a fine fuck."

    As an adjective: "Mary is fucking beautiful."

    It can be used as a greeting: "How the fuck are you?"

    Surprise: "FUCK! You scared the shit out of me."

    Anxiety: "The day is really fucked."

    It can even be used as nearly every word in a sentence: "Fuck the fucking fuckers."

    The comments about the censored words are more irritating than the actual censorship.
