China, EU protect each others’ asparagus and ham

Your “Dongshan Bai Lu Sun” asparagus for my “Prosciutto di Parma” ham: a deal between China and the European Union to protect each others’ 10 famous foods came to fruition Friday.

Started in July 2007, the so-called “10 plus 10” project aims to ensure the protection on both markets of famous food names such as France’s “Roquefort” or Britain’s “Blue Stilton” as well as “Longjung cha” tea or “Longkou Fen Si” noodles.
