The United Nations Votes to Preserve the Baguette

The United Nations wants to make sure future generations will be able to enjoy all the French baguettes they can eat.

The art of baguette-making has been added to the UN's cultural heritage list which designates it as "a cherished tradition to be preserved by humanity".

Officials in France have been concerned about the future of the baguette because the number of traditional French bakeries making the bread has declined over the past five decades.

Other traditions on the UN's list include Chinese tea, Indian yoga, Iranian calligraphy, and Ukrainian borscht.
