Brazil's bread tickles consumers' taste buds in China

PAULO - Cheese bread, Brazil's favorite breakfast and snack food, is now available at Chinese cafeterias.

Its import into China was made possible by the first-ever China International Import Expo held in Shanghai in November last year.

In May, Brazil's leading cheese bread maker Forno de Minas shipped its first container of 10 tons of cheese bread to China, supplying cafeterias in Shanghai. Two months later, the bakery made a second shipment to China with 18 tons of cheese bread.
