The French like their food but they are showing a growing appetite for fast food. So the likes of McDo (McDonald's) or Subway or Quick are serving up more food (sic) for the French.Though chain restaurants make up only 4% of all restaurants, they do €10 billion in sales per year, 20% of the industry total of €50 billion.Jacque Chirac, when he was still President of France, routinely lambasted "la male bouffe" (the bad grub) of chain restaurants, particularly of the foreign kind, and most particularly of McDo! How times have changed.
