The biggest cheese all over the world

Emmenthal cheese
I’m thinking of cheese when I talk about Switzerland. I think most people who said ‘Please draw a picture of cheese,’ they paint Swiss cheese with large holes. This cheese is called Emmenthal cheese and is used in Swiss local cuisine, cheese fondue.
Emmenthal cheese is native to Switzerland. This cheese is so big and it sometimes needs 1000 liters of milk and its diameter is over 100cm. It’s said to be the biggest cheese all over the world.
I love cheese fondue and often eat it for dinner with my family in the cold season. We can eat it easy to use in a microwave oven, but I wish I can eat it in its birthplace someday.
