People over 50 will generally say ‘feta cheese’, whereas people under 50 will generally just say ‘feta’.
Yeah I’ve noticed that too actually
I’ve not noticed that previously but now you mention it, that might very well be the case
I’ve not noticed that and it is simply not correct

I’m over 50 and just say feta but generally I’d say you are right - older people more likely to add the cheese bit.
Also
younger = parmigiana
Older = parmesan/parmesan cheese

I’m on the cusp and I do both. Same the burger/ beef burger too. Fuck
Something about naan (bread), pitta (bread).
I am over 50 and do not do any of these wild, stereotypical things!
A good dividing line is whether you habitually use your proper computer (laptop or desktop) for big purchases. Apparently young types will happily buy a fucking car using their phone and I can’t imagine doing it although when pressed there is no rational reason why. Anything over £200 feels like a big screen job.

I don’t want to sound defensive but lamb and chicken burgers are a thing.
Ah shit…
Yeah, but beef is the default. Like lasagne, you only specify if your being more exotic
Can’t even buy a cinema ticket on my phone
