What did happen is him removing a video where he was explaining how he made something that tasted like "parmesan", because the Parmesan lawyers sent him a cease and desist letter
Wait, Parmesan is trademarked???
Region locked. Parmigiano reggiano can only be produced in the city of Parma and the region around it (see the name).
You can produce whatever you want. You just can't market or sell it under that name.
Not so much trademarked, but having a protected origin:

I'm pretty sure it was actually Grana Padano.
Yup. Grana Padano.
edit: honestly, fuck PDOs. Or as Australia calls them, GIs (geographical indications) and CTMs (certification trade marks). They're such utter bullshit. I don't know whether they actually had legal legs to stand on with him calling it "Grana Padano–style", or if the "style" puts him legally in the clear. It's bullshit either way, but it's extra bullshit if even adding the "style" doesn't clear it.
