Brawls broke out in a chain of French supermarkets as shoppers fought over cut-price tubs of Nutella chocolate spread. The Intermarche supermarket chain on Thursday cut the price of a 950g jar of Nutella so popular in France that it is often served in bars and cafes to 1.41 euros ($1.8) from the usual 4.7 euros. But shops were confronted with outbursts of violence between customers fighting to get their hands on the product.
