  1. Rustic french cooking is simple, like meat and potatoes. Pastries, cheeses, and chocolates are a large part of the french cuisine. The French are known for their mastery of cooking techniques.


  2. french

  3. Near the border with Belgium, we eat like the Belgian.

    Near the border with Germany, we eat like the German.

    Near the border with Switzerland, we eat like the Swiss.

    Near the border with Italia, we eat like the Italian.

    Near the border with Spain, we eat like the Spagnard.

    Near the border with Great Britain, we eat like... NOOO! We don't have any land border with the U.K. No, please.

    There is no french food, there are french regional foods, and you could see them as another european regional foods. Traditionally, you had three big parts, based on the main fat used: the land of the cream, the land of the butter, and the land of the oil. What they call french food is maybe the food from the burgers of Paris.

    Nowadays, by lack of time and changes in society, we eat more and more like Americans, and tend to be more and more fat. Like other Europeans, too.

  4. They tend to eat nicely-prepared, elegantly-presented dishes.

    Though their foods are, for the most part, high in fat and calorie content, they do not eat in large quatities--thus, they are a relatively svelte nation.

  5. Anything that walks, crawls, flies, swims or hops is considered a delicacy provided it's covered with enough chocolate...why not just eat chocolate and leave the poor buggers alone?

    They have more cows than they know what to do with, thanks to the over generous subsidies the French managed to worm out of the European Parliament....they are knee deep in cowshit....beef mountains on every street corner....makes sense to eat beef right?

    No...the French gotta eat frogs and snails!

    Exactly how much nutrition do they expect to extract from a frogs leg?

    It's that old French logic again, innit? Completely missing!

    The energy expended in catching a frog...taking it home...cooking it....dishing it up with a sauce that looks like puke but compliments the swampy taste of a dead amphibian...far outweighs the benefit derived from eating it...

    Prey animals that do that become extinct....the French become chic...'Mon Dieu! Chocolate covered wahter buffalo's nostrils with a sprig of parsley!'.....'Stick insects dans rouge vin!'......'Toad Spawn avec garlic sauce!'....

    More entries for the next best selling cordon bleu cookbook...that everyone seems to have on their bookshelves but never ever cook ...it's easier to phone for a takeaway....

    It's a hard life for small things...when humans got chocolate...
