There could be more to it; some processed cheese products can't legally be named cheese.

Cheddar is a small town and a gorge in Somerset, UK. I live close by.

Switzerland is an entire country with sodding great mountains and lakes, multiple towns, cities and a lot of worryingly loved leather clothing.

How on earth can you reduce a nation that supplies the rather lovely Swiss Guard to the Vatican and rather a lot more (that word is working quite hard at this point and perspiring very heavily) to the entire world to ... cheese.

I suggest you don't apply for any jobs in marketing. Your talents will be wasted, should any be found 8)

So, what's for dinner this Thanksgiving?

The context of the thread is "swiss" on a menu in the US, which makes it obvious that it's cheese, and not a guard at the Vatican, same as cheddar on a sandwich is obviously not referring to an English town. It may shock you to find out that things are named differently in different places. smh

I mean Switzerland in the USA is mostly know for cheese, chocolate, Nazi gold, money laundering, and tax evasion.
