    Looks like half the calories of a swiss fondue. We are not really European though.

        It’s like saying Canadians are Americans. They do live on the American continent but are not part of the United States.

          No, that is like saying Canadians are on the american continent. Which they are. And so you are European.

            Sorry, I didn’t know the European adjective was only referring to the continent and never to the European Union.

            I still defend my point about the calories in the cheese though!

        Switzerland is geographically in Europe but we are not part of the European Union. We don’t want to share our cheese.

          EUROPEAN (adjective) Belonging to or relating to Europe or its people.

          That cheese got in your head.

            Yeaaah maybe I missed some subtlety of the adjective, sorry.

            Hopefully I can catch some of this cheese in my head with my tongue.

          Didn’t your cheese production become too clean to produce the legendary holes?

            Most of our cheeses never had holes. The ones that did still have them. You should have a look at our famous (although not the best in my opinion) Emmental if you like a cheese with holes (or should I call it holy cheese?!)

          Hmm that’s like the Indian reservations in Canada and the USA. Never thought about that before. Are they considered to be in Canada/usa? I’m pretty based off of watching Yellowstone that they get passports… anyway now I’m just rambling

            Its not really like that at all. Switzerland is very much part of Europe and shares European culture and history with the rest of us. That person is just a little bit confused.

      Fondue, with a starter plate of cured meats and a desert of meringue covered in double cream.

        As it should be! But please make sure it’s either a “moitié moitié” or a full vacherin cheese.

          Oh and for those thinking this is too much, some even throw in an egg into the cauldron once the melted cheese is gone.
