The French are being encouraged to eat more cheese than ever before, since the spread of Covid-19, cheese sales have fallen to frightening levels and farmers ?products have gone to waste!
France, which is known for its close association with cheese consumption, appears to have changed abruptly during the pandemic. According to CNN, from March 7, when the country's isolation began until April 10, cheese sales fell by 60%. Manufacturers have noticed that the French have given up cheese and turned their eyes away from basic necessities, causing a huge loss for sellers.
Therefore, citizens are being asked to return to cheese consumption. 80% of cheese types can withstand up to 8 weeks, while others less than a month, so the support of this industry is important for France.
Restrictive measures are expected to continue until June 24 in France, but there will be relief week after week, as in most parts of the world.
Kindergartens and primary schools are expected to open on Monday, while authorities are waiting to make a decision on opening bars and restaurants by the end of May. In France, about 25,772 people have died from coronavirus.
