My guy. You do understand that it’s not a rule of nature that only cheese from those regions can be called Parmigiano Reggiano? It’s a rule that is made by us, and we could change this rule?
I literally have no idea what you’re trying to tell me. Why do you think it’s impossible to change these rules? Why can’t you imagine a world without them?
Just as an example: you can make a Frankfurter sausage outside of Frankfurt, or a Wiener sausage outside of Vienna. Doing so doesn’t make the sausage explode and kill everyone around them, or make the gods raze the city for their insolence. It just… works. Why can’t you imagine the same working for cheese? Where is the rule of nature that disallows this to happen?
I don’t know how I could be more clear, the name of the type of cheese is GRANA! Just like a Wiener sausage is a type of sausage, you can’t call your sausage “Original Austrian Sausage from Wien” because it’s a fucking lie! The same goes for Parmigiano!
… no. Grana Padano is a different kind of cheese that is produced differently. It’s not just produced in a different location, it’s made up of slightly different things than Parmigiano Reggiano. This is a quality difference. Are you really too dense to understand this?

Yes, it’s a type of sausage. It’s not called what it’s called because of where they are produced, but because of how they are produced. The same should go for Parmigiano Reggiano. Do you finally get the difference?
No, despite your trip to Wikipedia you don’t know what you’re talking about, Grana Padano Is another brand, the kind of cheese is called Grana, Grana Padano just (imho illegally) protected an existing name. In Italy when you ask for Grana you are asking for either Grana or Parmigiano, but if you ask for Parmigiano then it’s only that.
That’s got zero to do with Parmigiano. Trentingrana for example is Grana Padano produced outside of the latter’s regulations, just like you are demanding, well they just used a different name.

And this still doesn’t change the simple fact that things should be called based on what they are, not where they were made.
