Culinary traditions hold a consequential place in French culture. Indeed, many regions pride themselves in their distinctive dishes, desserts, or specialties of any sort; and cheese is perhaps the embodiment of this French phenomenon. Ranging from 400 to over 1,000; nobody can say exactly how many kinds of cheese currently exist in France, its importance is, however, undeniable. Between 2008 and 2023, the volume of cheese made from cow's milk produced in France has remained moderately stable, between 1.7 and 1.8 million tons. In 2012, France produced 1860.2 thousand tons of cheese, its highest volume during that period.
