France: I Can't Believe There's No Butter! - Global demand leaves France with butter shortage

25.10.2017
French supermarkets failed to supply enough butter for their costumers, as the country currently faces a shortage of the spread due to the rising global demand of the product, Wednesday.
Footage shot in Maisons-Alfort, Paris, at a local Carrefour branch and at the 'Creteil Soleil' shopping centre shows the extent of the butter shortfall, which also resulted in soaring prices and loads of empty shelves.
A costumer named Christine said that she finds the situation "bizarre" and "contradictory," as she noted that farmers are often forced to throw away large quantities of milk that their stock produces.
Due to this issue, during the past year butter prices have doubled, reaching €6 (US $7.05) per kilogram.
