In Switzerland, "Swiss cheese" is just cheese. It's only a luxury product in the US because it has to be shipped to a different continent.

So who can afford it? In Switzerland, everyone.

There are more Americans who can afford Swiss cheese than there are Swiss people alive. If you are manufacturing food, then you have to calculate that each human only has one belly.
