That's not the same, Cheddar is a process not (just) a place and Cheddar isn't protected as a origin.

Most British Cheddar isn't from Cheddar either.

And there's plenty of really good mature Canadian Cheddar for example.

The process you’re thinking of is cheddaring. Many cheeses are cheddared but aren’t Cheddar.
