Emmanuel Macron, France’s President, has made the baguette a cultural treasure shortly after the same was done for for pizza-making in Italy. “I know our bakers,” claimed Macron after hosting a group of master bakers and apprentice bread and pastry makers at the Elyséé Palace for the traditional sharing of ”gallete des rois” cake to celebrate the new year.
“They saw the Neapolitans had managed to get their pizza classed on UNESCO’s world heritage list and they said why can’t we do the same for our baguette? And they’re right,” he proudly announced.
“The baguette,” he said “is envied around the world.”
