I've had many different cheeses on my burgers. I'm sure I've even had a gouda burger. They can be fine if you're going for like a specialty burger with other non-standard toppings, but a straight-up cheeseburger? That's not what proper Dutch cheese is made for, so why would you use it like that?

Different ingredients are better in different contexts.

    Gouda in the Netherlands is not the same as gouda from anywhere else

    I don't get the downvotes. I've been to Netherlands and it's true.

    Yeah it's not an opinion it's a fact. It's with a lot of food, that it's best in a certain country because of the climate. I've been all over the world and tasted a lot of Dutch cheeses produced overseas but they all taste different.

    Same with Heineken, in the Netherlands it tastes like piss but Heineken procured in other countries tastes like piss with plastic somehow. And it changes with every factory. Guinness also tastes best in Ireland. Red wines in the Netherlands taste worse than in France etc because of the climate. Best drink white when you're here.

    Next to that the production process isn't the same everywhere due to regulations which also has an effect on the taste of Gouda cheese. And cheese is made with mold which is very sensitive to climate. Different cows mean different milk taste. You can clone the strain and process but it's never the same.
