    Parm is expensive. I can go buy a ton of “Valio forte juust” or “Coop itaaliapärane kõva juust” (“Italian style hard cheese”, probably comes from Valio too tbh) at a quarter of the price and it tastes pretty much the same, they just can’t use the name. So I don’t think genuine parm sells very well with non-billionaires.

    Feta apparently can only be made from free range sheep and goat milk, with at least 70% of it being sheep milk. Much harder to make a ton of than anything made of cow milk in factory farms.
