What's funny is that the price difference between both countries is almost anecdotal in the case of milk. You would probably have a heart attack if you saw the price of cheese, and not only imported cheese, domestic 'artisanal' cheese too. The prices are just borderline grotesque, they are so extreme that they basically sell cheese pre-cut, in tiny tiny quantities. Most consumers ignore the fact that different kinds of cheeses should be cut a certain way for actual reasons and not out of sheer snobbism, consequently they sell them the pointe and the talon at the same price, lol!

Can't resist: the other day we made a 3 cheese fondue for four and it costed us close to a benjamin just in cheese at WF!



If you can read some French here there is a price comparison table [0], some 'organic' food is even cheaper than its branded counter-part.
