[@SkinnyEMedia]

Florence Villeminot- great and very gorgeous presenter for this programme. Always enjoy this programme!

I wonder If I can control all my passion the moment I see a French meat delicacy.

[@Eusantdac]

I just ate some foie gras. So good ...

Please, SKIP the dark chocolate! Avoid it like the plaque!

There’s no French cuisine for me without meat. Period.

[@scottjock]

Do they ever serve vegetables with meals in restaurants in France?

[@kanakasabhainatarajan7192]

Many French people eat veggies.The presenter Ms.Florence loves frog legs and she cooked and ate once in this show. French eat all types of meat and I was told once in France to try pig tail. May be a joke.

European average 80kg/person; that's because meat - especially beef - is expensive in these countries. I would love to eat more beef, but it is outrageously expensive. And very lean; not enough marble (fat) in it to taste great.

I moved to France in 2007 and love it dearly. When I travel, even into town, I take my food with me as the restaurants don't usually cater to vegans... c'est la vie. I would be happy to patronize the local restaurants if they offered anything I could eat.

I like Florence

I'm afraid to go to France, I have a severe food intolerance to onions and garlic. It seems like this is the first thing that goes into a French dish. I get the impression that French people even put that in reflexively!

Most great cooking has onions in it

Indians would love the recipe.

When they are talking about France I think they mean Paris. I live in rural France and you sure wouldn't get those answers in these parts. I am a vegetarian and it is hard for me to find a restaurant meal here. It is a shame because the fresh veg here make for some amazing vegetarian meals.

As a Brown Brit I get treated badly in France as they take me for an Arab. I lived in Italy and prefer the more rustic food and wine there. French food is rich and sophisticated, but equally over-elaborate and pretentious.

[@smkh2890]

On the question of meat, I have cut down but not given it up. There were times I lived as a vegetarian and am happy enough, but lacking conviction that we should turn the world against meat.

I know they eat frogs. Do they also eat dogs and cats?

[@caesardutta9394]
