You’re suggesting a french nutritionist would _encourage_ eating a baguette with butter as a healthy meal? That’s surprising to me. I suppose it _can_ be OK for a person who’s in good health already, but i wouldn’t purposely choose it and feel healthy about it lol. I can think of many alternatives that actually offer nutrition too. Like a banana, or baguette with a small side of sautéed peppers or mushrooms. I certainly wouldn’t suggest it to someone that’s already sick with diabetes or obesity for example. I have in-laws in paris, and i will say they walk as much as NYers. In other words, they are not sedentary like most americans. Portions sizes vary a lot too. I agree with you that sugary things that are new and trendy do a lot of damage!
