"The French cheese makers could sort of comply, by pasteurizing their milk"

And why should the French cripple a delicious and traditional product, which is gladly gobbled up by millions of happy consumers to sell their product in the US?

Because otherwise they can’t sell it there. Their country, their rules. A French cheese maker doesn’t get to dictate the rules abroad. Take it or leave it.

It seems to me that French and other European cheese makers are much more interested in protecting the integrity of their product than opening up the US market for it.

You mean, exactly what we are doing right now, causing all kind of outrage in France ? Funny you should bring that up, because it's a very hot topic currently :-D
