Why Spanish Cheese Smuggling Will Likely Continue in Canada
Canada is the North Korea of dairy products with a tight border through which foreign dairy products only pass in dribs and drabs but where, despite everything, Spanish cheeses are the rage.
In 2012, Canadian authorities broke up a profitable smuggling network by arresting three people who were illegally bringing products from the United States to Canada. Their crime?Smuggling mozzarella cheese to sell in Canadian restaurants.
The profits from the illegal dairy-products trafficking were so high that mozzarella was being called “white gold.”
