Fast Food in France

France - the land of gastonomy but for how long .... it seems that lifestyle is having a detrimental influence ....

No, I am not talking about the ubiquitous MacDo, where the car parks are never empty and the clients never full, but about French eating habits.

French supermarkets have never mastered the idea of matching open tills to number of customers waiting in line so there is leisure to clock the contents of other peoples’ trolleys while the lady currently being served twenty ahead of you is busy extracting her purse from underneath the shopping she has neatly packed on top of it and the other nineteen are busy putting their purses in the bottom of their bags in readiness.

The trolleys will be laden with ready prepared food, packets of biscuits, and those abominable bags of ready prepared salad leaves, washed in chlorine to remove the bugs acquired during the production process. Fast food seems to have taken over.
