Photo du Jour


Pre-packaged, ultra-processed Chicken Burgers.
I can't believe people would actually eat these things. And I can't believe that they are sold in France! Pin It

Anne
There must be a market for them...
Scary.

I do enjoy your cheese expose's so I return occasionally to see if you posted any - you have been rather sedate since the t-shirt episode??
As for your latest critic, I dont know what the guidelines for blogs are - my wife does one that many find interesting about everyday things - I quess its in the eyes of the beholder if to read or not read - I would suspect that the blogger would not think they can please everyone!!

I love this photo! I'm surprised you didn't get hassled taking it. My husband tried to take photos at some local supermarket and got accosted by the security agents. I guess you were sufficiently sneaky.

Dale
Glad you enjoy reading about the cheese.

Betty
Yes, I was sneaky! :)
I started to take it once, and a few customers came around the corner so I quickly hid my camera. Once they moved on I snapped it. I suspect I would have been yelled at if they had seen me.

(giggle) Peter's right -- it *is* Snarky Guy who eats those -- see his latest post! Oh no -- you've offended him now.

Hi Dale
Welcome back. If I had to chose between you and The Snark, you'd be my date every time.

Well, offending him wasn't difficult to do!
My point about the Chicken Burgers is that all of the horrible processed food that is so popular in America is now more and more prevalent in France. It is sad!
And it is expensive! 1 little burger is €2.80.
I can buy a kilo of rice or 500g of pasta for about €1 and spend the rest on fresh vegetables and create a healthy meal for several people for €2.80. This isn't food snobbery, it is common sense.

Martha
I agree! Dale is a much nicer person.

keep it up Loulou!

Dale
You're welcome!
