The World Food Atlas unveiled its top 50 of the best planetary cheeses on Monday, February 13.
The first French products only point to the 13th and 14th position…
And the best cheese in the world is… Italian!
THE The first places are monopolized by Italian cheeses: parmesan reggiano in the lead, followed by gorgonzola piccante and burrata. In 5th place, we find a Mexican product: oaxaca cheese ?? . And in the 8th, the queijo serra da Estrela from Portugal ?? .
The first ranked French product is Reblochon, which only came 13th, followed by Comté 14th. You then have to wait for 26th place to find (finally) the Mont d'Or. No wonder, this ranking did not fail to make many French people react on the web:
? “There is a Brazilian cheese ?? in front of the reblochon everything is fine”, comments one of them, drawing the wrath of the Brazilian commentators.
? “Cantal, Morbier, Tomme, Saint-Nectaire, Fleurs du Marquis, Crottins, Saint-Marcellin, Camembert, Brie, Roquefort, Gruyère, Rocamadour… Too many of them are forgotten,” writes another.
This is not the first time that the Bulgarian site ?? attracts the wrath of lovers of French gastronomy.
At the end of 2022, “Taste Atlas” had the nerve to place France behind the United States ?? in its list of "best cuisines in the world".
I'm sorry, but a ranking of the 50 best cheeses without camembert cannot be taken seriously! ?
