Macron Cheers as French Baguettes Granted UNESCO Status

French President Emmanuel Macron was presented with a baguette while speaking at the French Embassy in Washington, DC on Wednesday.

Stéphane Grattier, a baker at "Christophe Bakery," handed it to him.

The baguette was already drawing worldwide recognition this week.

It is being added to the United Nations' list of intangible cultural heritage as a cherished tradition to be preserved by humanity.
