Ribeauville (French pronunciation: [ʁibovil]) is a commune in the Aisne department in Hauts-de-France in northern France.
Beekeepers from the area were puzzled when their bees began producing blue honey until it was discovered that a nearby biogas plant processes waste from the manufacturing of M&M's.[3]
