are chocolates a big hit in france?can you give me food in france that can make you fat.thank you

Answer 1

Chocolates aren't big in France -- not that the French people don't eat them once in a while --- they do, but not in the quantities that others do. The French prefer things that have more subtle flavorings and are big, big, big on sauces. Actually, French cuisine is so much about presentation and unique combinations, with lots of unusual vegetables, that it isn't big on fat-making foods. And if you look at the average Frenchman (or more especially, French women) they are pretty trim. That said, breakfast often consists of coffee (super strong) and croissants, which are made with tons of butter, and if you ate enough of them you would turn into a butterball. But in France, after coffee and one croissant, they finish off the meal with one of those dreadful gauloise cigarettes. Voila! they don't put on weight.

Answer 2

In France most of the food is very high calorie/high fat. However the portion sizes are much more reasonable and therefore you can indulge. Why do you think French women can eat what ever the want an stay thin? There really is not a bad restaurant in France, the home of cuisine. If you are on vacation, I really wouldn't sweat it. I love crepes, baguettes, and just about anything else in French cuisine. Good luck.

Answer 3

Contrary to the common misperception, there is no one prototypical French food. Like most countries, the food varies from geographic location to another. Here's a link to my article about the various French regions and the foods that are native to them:
