French Vegetables

[Caran]

Supermarkets in France have great displays of vegetables. Having been to France nearly every year for 15 years we have never seen a carrot, a pea, caulie,broccoli or any other veg in a restaurant. All you are offered is chips, rice OR green beans. Who eats all the French veg?
When they come over here and eat out they must be amazed at the choice of veg.

Of course.

Because its rustic, and traditional, and doesn't involve fried sprouts.

And it comes from Tuscany, like wine, and Italian sports cars (I think), and sexy men, and the TVR Tuscan, and things like that.
