France's Strategic Yogurt Production is in Peril

It's splitsville for Danone in China, and Yoplait is now expected to pick up an accordion and go native: General Mills and China's Bright Food is talking about acquisition. The question is, now that an evil American company isn't the sole focus, will a Franco-fetishistic stink be made about those gentle, transparent, human employers from China?

"Bright wants to accelerate going global and expand its dairy business through mergers and cooperation," said Wang, who recently travelled to France to meet Yoplait's major shareholders.

Given the aboriginals' propensity to see outsiders as exploiting marauders, all I can say is Boo Ho, Spanky.
