I think French cuisine is WAY more flavorful and calorie dense, and they're thin.
- a-priori 18y agoThe key is portion size. French cuisine may be more dense, but they eat less of it.
- fortes 18y agoIt's also about the rate of absorption into your body, as well as the consistency of flavors (packaged food is very uniform, and creates strong associations)
- umjames 18y agoThe French have more leisure time than Americans. It's just as much about what going on in your life stress-wise as it is about what you eat. We have much to learn about life-work balance from the rest of the world. It's unfortunate that some parts of the world look at America and think that they should be emulating us! Please stop that before it's too late. America needs Mexican siestas and French vacation time in the worst way.
