Recommended Reading


Though we do not have children, I am really enjoying learning so much about the common perspective of food in France -- a definite part of their culture.  Their concept of eating is very fascinating.  The author has an interesting section on the farmers' markets in France where most people do their shopping still -- pages 28-30.  Their food culture includes eating very few processed foods, a belief to which I adhere.  Their diets have a tremendous amount of variety.  (Psst...a few of the vegetables, I have not heard of before!)  And perhaps the most surprising concept to me was that they have no snacking.  Anyway...will let you read it for yourself if you are interested!
