Sure, because your analogy isn’t equivalent to the original issue.

The knives used to be up there with cheese, but leatherman has taken a lot of the multitool market recently.
After that is probably hot chocolate. I mean, we know that Swiss Miss probably wouldn't pass in Switzerland, but we see the name everywhere so it's subconscious.

Of course they do. Switzerland is a tiny country that imports most of its food. About half the land is moutainous, which limits the production capacity. Tl

Which did you pick and why, if you don’t mind me asking? What did you study?

Forgive me if this feels like boasting, but that's not my experience. I'm white, not a legacy, went to public schools, and got into 3 of the 4 that I applied to. They're mostly looking for the same things (alas).

Hum...we, Europeans, are more in for quality than quantity...I bet swiss cheese production over-values Arg and Ven twice...

Obviously, given that those that don't apply are not at all likely to attend.

Even if you have perfect grades and scores, your chances to get into one of these schools is still super low, especially if you’re white, Asian, and not a legacy student. You can apply to all the Ivies and only get into one.

So much bigger country produces more of something than a much smaller country?
Next thing you'll tell me is that China produces more tomatoes than Switzerland

Because there's a little more to making cheese than making your milk hard...

48k tonnes? You don't like cheese?

I believe they also associate them with chocolate, where it really should be Belgium.

That’s what I thought too, but does it reverting back at the end make sense?? I’m no data expert so maybe exponential does work that way but that really threw me off hahaha

Haha built in exponential. This is NOT a beautifully displayed data set.

No, actually it’s that their milk is so subsidized that dumping it is profitable.

Also, given Switzerland was the main example for comparison, it probably makes sense to connect it with other countries in its neighbourhood. Basically saying Switzerland isn't a massive producer like the other eight big European producers, which is relevant.

Same tired trope about the US. It's like beer. The US has some of the best cheese and beers and wines in the world, but uncultured Europeans want to compare Kraft singles to their named cheeses when smaller farms in places like Vermont or Wisconsin are making incredible products.
