I actually had to think about that pun for a moment. I knew it should work, but I couldn't figure out why it didn't.
Then I realised it's due to me being used to my Dutch wife pronouncing Gouda as Dutch people do. To my ears, it sounds like: [throat-clearing-sound]owda.
You're right about the pronunciation. If you used the correct pronunciation in America very few people would know what you were talking about. It was a really bad pun anyway but that's never stopped me before.

IIN that I think parmesan cheese looks like cocaine?
