A cheese so famous Holland named a whole town after lying about where it's made.
means A mild, yellow, semi-hard Dutch cheese made from cow's milk, named for the town where it was historically traded.
from Named after Gouda, a city in the Netherlands — though, true to the essence, the cheese wasn't necessarily made there. Gouda was a market town where the cheese was weighed and sold, so the name marks the place of trade rather than production. The town's own name comes from the Gouwe, a small river running through it, joined with the Dutch 'dam' (a dam built where the Gouwe met the larger Hollandse IJssel).
