We dive into what is eaten most, how baguettes are becoming less popular, and how chocolate hazelnut spreads like Nutella are facing competition from other brands – but also from other nut butters, such as peanut butter.

Patrick Bruel scandal: Can we separate the art from the artist?

In this edition of Entre Nous we dive into the "Affaire Patrick Bruel", as it is being called here in France. We discuss the accusations of sexual assault by some 30 women against the French singer and actor. We also examine some of the difficult questions this scandal and others like it raise: should we separate the art from the artist? What of the presumption of innocence? Finally, we look at how France's statute of limitations laws are being tested here.
