France have something around 246 different kind of cheese (of those, 45 are PDO). Number are from a citation of De Gaulle, so they may be a little wiggly.
Italy has 487 different cheese (48 PDO) and produces something around double the total amount of France (in quantity).
UK has 115 variety and 14 PDO.

....so, to answer to the OP: the third best country in the world for cheese is UK!

If you want a fondue but without the fuss and bother, get a Camembert, stick it the oven for a bit, slice it open and dip lots of crusty French baguette into it - delicious!

There are over 700 named cheeses made in the UK.

To be fair, some of them are locally made versions of foreign cheeses such as Brie or Mozzarella.

All those varieties are pretty much meaningless because virtually no one eats 99% of them. The only true 100% scientific impartial mechanic of deciding which country has the best cheese is by looking at which country's cheese sells the best. And apparently that is... Germany?
Second is the Netherlands, who are closely behind and correcting for population size actually performs a lot better. Have I mentioned how great Dutch cheese is already?
Third is France.
Fourth is Italy.
Fifth is Denmark.
And the UK only comes in at place 12. Your cheese is worse than that of the US

TBH a lot of exported cheese is mass-produced gak.

But it's as scientific at it gets I'll grant you that.

Near Jupiter.

America has the best tasting cheese for dipping hot fries in. New zealand has the best cheese hands down, nz has the freshest cheese, just look at where we are located on earth, so far away from the black death and other diseases that have ravaged EU and others


Automatically Appended Next Post:
So you can easily calculate we have the freshest


Automatically Appended Next Post:
our country was only discovered few hundred years ago, so its the freshest you can get


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I just want to add this, i have never been able to find the cheese i had when i was in america and dipped it in hot fries. I searched long and hard but nope. i think we dont allow most american foods in nz for health reasons lol.

I admit, I'm struggling to understand how the Black Death is related to modern cheese.

Anyway, surely it isn't about the amount produced/sold, but the quality of such products? How would you quantify the quality of a piece of cheese?

Pecorino Sardo, Ricotta, Parmigiano, Mozzarella... There is really no contest here.

UK on Nr. 1 did make me chuckle, though.

Usually Wensleydale. My wife is keen on it. I prefer a decent Stilton or Shropshire Blue with chutney myself.
