As a Frenchman, I'm shocked our country is selling so many crisp flavours (particularly Lay's).
Having an aisle dedicated to crisps is something I would only associate with nations with poor appreciation of food. It is junk and you should stay away from it.
- barrkel 3y agoThanks for policing my snacks. I like to munch on something occasionally of a weekday afternoon while working, or when watching a movie at home in the evening. If it wasn't crisps it would be something very similar: savoury, unheated, not requiring a fridge, and can be put aside for later consumption when I've had enough. I can't tolerate nuts and I don't like pretzels and similar salty grain products. So crisps it is. I can't comment much on Lays since I don't buy them, never been a fan.
- wouldbecouldbe 3y agoI get you Chips is I think one of tastiest, most satisfying snack out there. I don't buy them, because I can't control, will just finish the bag. Off late been just thinly slicing potatoes and throwing them in the oven with some good oil. Needs between 40-60 minutes, but same levels of satisfaction.
- mgaunard 3y agoI am fully aware that developers tend to have bad eating (and even lifestyle) habits. I'd recommend drinking water (cold and filtered, potentially fizzy) instead of always reaching out for food, especially since most of your activities seem to revolve around sitting. You could also explore tea or even coffee, which are both fun hobbies as well.
- scrollaway 3y agoYou done policing people yeah?
- mgaunard 3y agoWhat does your comment add to this conversation?
- DontchaKnowit 3y agoI like my water warm, flat, and straight from the kitchen sink. You gonna tell me thats unhealthy too? Lmfao
- mgaunard 3y agoThe data suggests that increased water consumption is an effective mean to reduce snacking, and that making the water cold helps improve its attractiveness for most populations. Now if you've found something else that works for you, that's great too.
- AlecSchueler 3y agoFrance is a multicultural society and the food available in shops reflects that.
- speedgoose 3y agoWe have a lot of bad junk food in France. Like the French tacos that consist of French fries and random things from the freezer of a junk food truck, all wrapped in a tortilla. I don’t think we should brag loud about French food culture. But we can still judge UK and Germany, that’s okay. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_tacos https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_tacos
- arethuza 3y agoI am fond both of French food and strange crisp flavours - what would recommend as an authentic French snack?
- mgaunard 3y agoSnacking is bad for you, so I would recommend that you don't snack at all. Otherwise the obvious French products would be charcuterie, bread and cheese.
- kalleboo 3y agoFrance has more McDonalds per capita than anywhere else in Europe
- scrollaway 3y agoMcDonald’s is quite different in France. I recommend this video: https://youtu.be/zmIczg6a0WQ https://youtu.be/zmIczg6a0WQ
- kalleboo 3y agoI live in Japan, we also have "good" McDonalds here with the same macarons, hip high school students spend hours studying in the well-designed, inviting interiors, etc. It's still factory fast food that someone who is "shocked [their] country is selling so many crisp flavours" would be appalled by. I'm not ragging on their McDonalds I'm ragging on GP's elitist nationalism.
