From the CitySuper website, about their new store in, er, Sha Tin:
The heaven for cheese-lover! We carry the widest selection of cheese types and products in town, may they from France, Italy, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, USA and Japan. You name it!
OK, I name it: Stilton, Cheddar, Lancashire, Cheshire…
And I understand French cheese getting prominence, but Japan? USA?
Americans produce something they rather imaginatively call “American cheese”, don’t they?

I don’t understand. If you hate the city that much, why do you still live there? I suppose you are british, right?

I think that there may be a bit of a clue at the top of every page where it says “the perspective of a Brit living in the New Territories”. Yes, I’m British.
I don’t hate Hong Kong at all – there are many excellent things about the place, and I do write about them!!

I am not surprised at all. Many of the locals here can’t tell Britain from England. Some of them probably believe that English is a language brought to England by the Americans. British cheese?

Hey, what’s with the Northern Ireland-bashing? UK cheese, if you please! 😉

I’ve been to Hokkaido twice in the last couple of years. They make pretty good cheeese there ( and cheesecake ). I guess that’s where it’s from. A lot of chocolate as well. The beers not bad too !
