Quelle horreur - Dijon mustard shortage in France
There's a shortage of mustard in France - and it may very well spread to other parts of the world.
Pictures of empty shelves in French supermarkets are going viral and customers are being asked not to stockpile.
Chefs are worried that it will affect the taste of their food - quelle horreur!
But what's causing the shortage and what can be done?
Luc Vandermaesen is managing director of the mustard company Reine de Dijon and head of the Burgundy Mustard Association. He told Newshour's Audrey Brown more about the crisis.
