Cheese is probably one of the products most associated with Switzerland - but that doesn't stop them importing the stuff from Italy. There's always an excellent selection of cheeses available every Wednesday at the main train station market in Zürich - which is one of the main reasons for attending. Naturally enough, there's also an excellent selection of goodies (including cheeses) from around Switzerland as well.
