Envoyé spécial. AOP : des fromages à la chaîne - 12 octobre 2017 (France 2)

Are you sure about what you're serving on your cheese board? From the Cantal mountains to the cheesemonger's counter, the truth behind the "Protected Designation of Origin" (PDO). A source of national pride, these cheeses have made our gastronomy famous worldwide. In France, 45 cheeses benefit from the PDO label, "Protected Designation of Origin." In principle, this is a guarantee of quality, of local products made according to traditional methods. The reality is quite different: 70% of PDO cheeses actually come from industrial production lines. Dairy multinationals like Lactalis and Sodiaal are increasingly nibbling away at market share. They are accused of driving prices down at the expense of quality. The show's website: http://www.francetvinfo.fr/replay-mag...
