But is it better, or just more traditional? France is a country that cares a lot about food tradition.

It is better. We have a decently strong cheese tradition in Sweden too, but French cheese is tastier.

I don't even like the French, their culture is obnoxious, I'd take every chance to shit on the French. But you just can't argue with their cheese, it's that good. Some of their wines are ok too, but I mostly prefer Italian on that front.

Italian cheeses similar to French types from the alp regions are very good as well. Beppe and his cheeses in Rome.

There is no taste difference, it’s just cheaper to produce since you can skip heating it for a few minutes.
