Quebec language watchdog investigating yogurt spoons [View all]

MONTREAL—Quebec’s language watchdog has issued a statement insisting that it has not banned a certain type of frozen-yogurt spoon.

It has merely opened a yogurt-spoon investigation.

The Office québécois de la langue française confirms that it has opened an investigation after receiving a complaint about the plastic spoons served by the American frozen yogurt chain Menchie’s.

Someone complained that the plastic pastel-coloured spoons contained the words, “Sweet Moosic.”
