Mostly pretty much the same as now.
Nope, that's the reason cheese was invented.
You'd be wrong about that. Most would have had cows and goats.
Not because they couldnt afford cheese.

I was merely pointing out than in all of the above, there is a total dearth of cheese varieties
No. Populations boomed in the industrial age due to better nutrition.
The USA is so big and diverse it's hard for even a native to grasp it all. But yes, he is welcome to a small plot of land somewhere in the Arizona desert or the Lousiana swamps where he can camp and deplore all the rest.
Cheese here has to be made from pasteurized milk (flash heated, like
72c for 15 seconds) or aged for at least 60 days to let most of the bugs die out.Milk was once a major vector for tuberculosis and some other nasties.
There are occasional fads here for raw milk, typically with unfortunate side effects, like dead babies. Odwalla killed some people with unpasteurized fruit juices too.
For years I used to by Cabot Seriously Sharp. Decent cheese. One time though, I tried Kerrygold Reserve. No going back. I get it at BJs.
"Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past"
I think it was one of yours who wrote that.
They don't. Its the 'adult' equivalent of what little kids do, put their fingers in their ears, close their eyes and chant "nyah nyah, can't hear ya"
Canyon Market and Gus's near me have hundreds of cheeses and a monger/advisor on hand. Even Safeway up the canyon has a cheese island about the size of an SUV. I think we have seven different cheeses in the fridge right now.
You might get out more and see for yourself.
Nobody forced peasants off the land and into factories. They did it because it improved their lives.
Industrialization gave us tractors, fertilizers, insecticides, trucks, airplanes, refrigeration, and plant breeding that multiplied crop yields enormously. The factories paid workers so they could afford the ag products.
Life spans have over doubled since 1800.
Yeah, sure. I suppose if you ignore the Dark Continent, Myanmar, Central and South America and a few other isolated instances. In late breaking news the Saxons and Franks have signed a treaty. (although Macron seems to be doing his best to piss off Germany)
.. and did those feet in ancient times...
Same here in the German Saar county where I live. Industry was iron & coal and the workers families used to have at least a goat. They were "Bergmann-Bauern", miner-farmers to survive.
Yes, enforced by British military. That makes friends for a hundred years. Not.

Finland was on the German side in WW2 because they hated the Russians.
I'm not sure the Blue Mink theory will stand Mendelian genetics, or it will require even more miscegenation.
India might disagree. The US certainly would. Argentina really wished you'd go home and Eire sent you home.
Please keep it in your part of the country.
Yes.
BULLSHIT.
That's a ready made product rather than a kit of parts. A bit cheaper:
Kenya seems to be relatively stable no thanks to the Brits that insisted on incorporating Somalis despite a plebiscite. Funny how plebiscites are only valid if they come out 'right'.
That's Asda. People complain the rolls won't fit in their holders now.
