Just an article on "Nutella Tax"


So, I thought I had shared this in one of my social media...but I didn't. The other day I was browsing the internet and stumbled upon this headline: FRANCE GOES AFTER FATTY SNACKS WITH 'NUTELLA TAX' 

As a fellow lover of "The Original Hazelnut Spread," I thought it would be nice to share with this audience that I guess in France,
"The Senate passed a measure Wednesday that would triple the tax on palm and some other vegetable oils in the hope of cutting down on obesity.The "Nutella tax" would affect any foods made with those oils and bring in about €40 million ($51 million). The measure is part of a bigger bill on financing the national health care system and aims to push manufacturers to use healthier alternatives."
 You will be happy (because I am) to know that the recipe will not change! I am not sure if it will affect the price to people in the USA...I hope not.
