Nope, that's a load of ignorant horseshit. Do yourself a favour and read about the PDO process. It's nothing to do with "lobbying" anyone. "The Greek government" did not "lobby" anyone, rather the producers of feta cheese in specific regions of Greece applied for their product to be given a PDO by the EU. The application was of course supported by the Greek government. At the same time, it was contested by the Danish, German and French goverments because industries in those countries had been selling cow's milk cheese as "feta" for sometime and didn't want to lose the revenue. These three countries also didn't "lobby" anything - they contested the PDO application in the courts. They lost, so feta is a Greek PDO cheese.
"Lobbied"! Seriously.
