The European Courts of Justice has ruled on a Spanish cheese dispute involving labels featuring the literary character Don Quixote de La Mancha.But a manchego cheese producer in a different region allegedly used illustrations on its labels depicting Don Quixote, his bony horse and countryside with windmills.
The cheese derives from central Spain's La Mancha to the south of Madrid, where the 17th century novel Don Quixote de la Mancha by Miguel de Cervantes is set. None of the products are covered by the protected designation of origin for the popular cheese known as manchego, and the Queso Manchego Foundation argued that the company was evoking that status improperly.The Luxembourg-based court issued its opinion on the case, ruling on Thursday that such images may trigger associations with the protected product in a shopper's mind.It told Spain's Supreme Court, which is hearing the case, that the images might be unlawful.
That will have the Spanish going on strike
How many people are the EU paying to come up with this 🐂💩
Obviously grating them
Spexit
Not in the least bit surprising!
Another Stupid EU Ruling thats why we need to get out they are Bonkers
More eu nonsense
Make them read the book before they buy it?
EU Mafia at it's best
EU pathetic
I'll rewrite it : Fake Manchego cheese that isn't from La Mancha should stop using the legitimate artwork of the real stuff.
All the problems the EU has and one of its highest courts is wrestling with the finer points of cheese labelling.
I volunteer to personally dispose of all the illegal Manchego. Just send it to me. It will vanish in no time.
I love cheese. That is all I have to say on this matter.
All because of Brexit 🤣🤣
