Grinzola

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

There is only one source. This source contains a leaflet(primary source, because it is an exhibit). The commentary is not enough to make an article beyond WP:NOT. The company(Nordex Food) has no article on Wikipedia. Lurking shadow (talk) 16:28, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete, no evidence that this is a notable product, even though it seems to have existed in the 1990s and was sold at Sainsbury's:  —Kusma (talk) 16:37, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete per lack of sources. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 17:54, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment. No opinion on notability but seems to exist per the Wellcome source I added to the article and Lynda Brown The Shopper's Guide to Organic Food (1998), pages 68 and 163, which describes it as "a Briestyle sliceable cheese". ETA: also two hits in WL: "Nordex Food" in Super Marketing magazine (Feb. 18, 2000) snippet states "Nordex Food has changed the name of its Cornflower range to Dairyland Organic and given it new, modern packaging. The range still includes Butter, Extra Creamy Danish Blue, Cream Cheese and Grinzola, and all have Soil..." and "Danes gain foothold for organic dairy products" in Grocer. (March 12, 1994), Vol. 216 Issue 7142, p33. There might well be more sources in Danish. Espresso Addict (talk) 19:13, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * My theory is that they had to rename the cheese when Gorgonzola became a protected name in the EU in the mid-1990s. The Wellcome source says it was produced by Gedsted Dairy, which in Danish is "Gedsted Mejeri" (so Nordex is only the importer to the UK), and I am pretty sure the cheese is still being sold, under the name "Blå Kornblomst" = "Blue cornflower". Here is a cheese shop selling it. —Kusma (talk) 19:52, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * That's a nice, even believable theory, but in the absence of any reliable source tying these two together it is simply original research.Lurking shadow (talk) 20:35, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Indeed. I certainly wouldn't add any of my claims to the article. But maybe my speculation is useful for someone else who can show the cheese is notable after all, or who can prove my theory. —Kusma (talk) 20:45, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete nothing found, maybe in Danish? No news articles, only rehashes of what's given in wiki. Oaktree b (talk) 00:12, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
