I suspect that the question to talk-gb was to "try see what X is called
in British English" (given that lots of countries and supranational
organisations have similar schemes, not always compatible, as Chris has
already said, and OSM tends to use British English).
Unfortunately I'm not convinced that the UK is a good example here - as
has also already been said the standards for England, Scotland and Wales
in are in flux post-brexit. Also note that Northern Ireland is to some
extent "still in the EU" for food standards purposes.
The relevant "gov.uk" links for the GB list is
https://www.gov.uk/protected-food-drink-names ; see also
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/protected-geographical-food-and-drink-names-uk-gi-schemes
. Note that these are also _not_ UK-wide; they are England Scotland and
Wales only.
Best Regards,
Andy
