So some cheeses can be used as an insulater.
But that still doesn't explain how it can be used to activate an electricity based machine!

Speaking of King's Quest and cheese, something occurred to me and I checked it out. Here's an site about Switzerland:

If you thought KQ1 was anachronistic by referring to Swiss Cheese, turns out they weren't. It's not a new cheese at all. Well, maybe calling it "Swiss" cheese was anachronistic, but it's been around since at least the 1st century. Ok, it's not at the level of electric cheese, but I thought it was interesting.
I never found it anachronistic.
But some people think it seems out of place to make a real reference to a real world location/people.
