For CNIEL it is free publicity. Putting in for them trivial amount ensures that it
happens. No-brainer. Nothing wrong with accepting their money as everyone gains from the
deal. Win- win-win situation.

photograph 'em all
Hi everyone,
A quick update 7 days after launch (pun intended).
We have reached 92% of our first goal. We're receiving huge supports and an amazing
coverage from medias. This is just awesome.
In the latest news, we just received a 1 200€ pledge from the CNIEL
the organisation promoting dairy products in France. Just so you know, we did not asked
them to.
We're really happy from this unexpected support :)
Thanks also to everyone here who helped spread the word and allowed us to go this far.
Now, we have to reach the 9 000€ goal so we can produce a documentary about how cheese is
made.
Thanks again, I tried to remain brie-f

British cheese is better than its reputation

look. However British cheeses are difficult to
distinguish from
British breeds of pig. Gloucester Old Spot, Lincolnshire Poacher,
Oxford Sandy

Black, Balcombe Brown Ring, Yarg, Mangalitsa -
can you tell which is
a
pig
and which is a cheese without looking it up in a
popular online
encyclopedia? I think not. :)
