@OttoKreml the problem is that the EU demands that only products coming from specific regions within the EU should be labelled with names that are seen in the US/Australia etc as ‘generic’ names for cheeses etc, eg, the EU is trying to dictate what American companies label the products they send to Mexico say. This would lower sales of US products and boost sales of EU products, thus it’s not a problem of the label, but that both parties want one label for one product from outside the EU to use or definitely not use a particular name. The same label can’t both use the name for the (US origin) cheese because that’s the accepted generic name, and not say that cheese name because the EU insists that only cheese made in a particular region use that name.
