And exactly what game is that?

As for their awards, they refer to "16 awards in the American Cheese
Society International Competition and 6 Medals in the “World Cheese Awards”
Competition". How many French cheeses were submitted in competition in the
American Cheese Society International Competition?

The "World Cheese Awards" are London (UK, one presumes although it doesn't
specifically say so) and Wisconsin (US, one presumes). Beating the English
doesn't amount to a victory over French cheeses at all.

And my guess is we're talking pasteurized cheeses here, not raw milk which
is much more popular in France.
