Repeated Question From My Stack

This week's contestant gets the benefit of a little added context. Curious how this question will be valued. Given they've put chocolate up there as a distractor, I'm guessing $10,000.

Wow! Do you think they used it again because of the lifeline usage? I wonder why they recycle questions?

They probably didn't notice.

I'm glad they didn't ask what an Erherzog Johann was!

It's Erzherzog which means Archduke.

Thank you for correcting my typo.

Now please explain how that answer would possibly help answer the question, in the context of the food items mentioned in the question in the OP.

How many thousands of questions have been asked during the show's run? There's only so many things you can ask.

Archduke John was a noted cheese lover. Actually:
