Feta is the best-known and most-consumed Greek cheese nowadays. Following several court cases against other European countries that were contesting the exclusivity in the production of Feta cheese, the European Union recognized Feta as a PDO (Protected Designation of origin) product, which means it can only be produced in Greece (in specific areas), using a specific cheese-making process that safeguards its high nutritional value and quality characteristics, that make it such a unique cheese.
