My favourite cheese comes from the middle east. Cheeses of Nazareth.

‘You’re Own Personal Cheezus’ is the slogan on the Depeché Mode cheese shop’s awning in NY.

I'm assuming this is a play on the accent that forces a different inflection of vowels. There are some errors here.

Using any of the major accents, English South African, General black South African, Cape Coloured, Cape White. an 'e' in this context would still be pronounced as to identify the word 'feta' as is. Thus inferring said individual just kept eating cheese and put no more weight on.

In Afrikaans, the 'e' at worst would sound like an 'i'. Thus I read it as 'fitter'. I was confused as to how someone with a cheese addiction would indeed get fitter.

This joke needs more context.

Yes, then what happened?

 

[Zeberdi]

This joke de jour is like a piece of Swiss cheese full of holes

Feta is not South African but he is a Forward who plays for Maribor and actually comes from the Republic of North Macedonia where the eating of Greek cheese would be considered unpatriotic (Northern Macedonia has a very troubled history with Greece). The RNM have their own traditional cheeses of which they are very proud, including kashkaval which is nothing like feta but is a hard yellow cheese. While they do have a traditional cheese similar to Greek Feta, the idea it has addictive qualities is highly questionable imo.

Hope that halloumi-nates matters

 

[Guinness Boy]

Yes, then what happened?

Unfortunately he went a bit mad and started talking to his own reflection in the mirror. People from miles around could hear him saying “hello me”.

I think I’ve heard of this chap. Is he the one who went to the doc and asked how he should be treated?

The doc advised “Carefully.”

Edit: with halloumi and feta both covered off, I’d run out of Greek cheeses. Hard cheese for me.

 

[Mr Bridger]

Yes, then what happened?

He Blue up.

Terrible joke, much prefer this one

A: Mascarpone

I think you’d need a lot of it as horses are quite large. The cheese purchase would need to be made by someone with not only a lot of money, but also a credible answer as to why they needed to hide the horse in the first place.

The clue is in the fact that it’s Italian

But actually you would not need as much cheese to hide a pony as you would a horse. Generally, equines are called “ponies” up to a height of 14.2hh and “horses” are those taller than 14.2hh.

In that case what cheese WOULD one need to hide a horse (as opposed to a pony which has been clarified)?
