Not at all. We consider it something of a luxury, in fact. (Cooking food at the table)

So much this. The average Swiss person eats Fondue 1x per year, similarly Raclette.

I doubt your numbers. According to [1], average per capita consumption of Raclette was 1.35kg per year in 2006, and that includes infants. Gruyere was even >1.7kg per year, and I'm sure a lot of that goes into Fondues. I don't know about you, but I can't down 1.35kg of Raclette in one sitting, and I don't think Swiss have changed that much since 2006 ;).
