h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I seem to recall an old, short, poor article about buying food in France. I remember that when I read it I though "uh huh, this is some of the stuff they should update".
This article is to that article as H2G2 is to "Harmless"!

Hi

I have lived in France for a couple of years now so I have shopped for a fair bit of food. Unfortunately, I'm off for a demi in my local bistro now, and I haven't had time to read the whole article yet.

If you're still here, "I'll be back" (don't worry, I'm not planning to drive a car through the front window and proceed to massacre everyone in the building!).

Just one point that I picked up on initially - you say most milk in supermarkets is UHT. Although I agree that the French are keener than the Brits on UHT, I have never had any difficulty buying pasteurised fresh milk in supermarkets (semi-skimmed, no less!). Don't know why you have had probs with this.

I was in the Loire and in Brittany - I admit that it's easier in Paris and some other large cities. This article was inspired by an entry in PR that has now been sent off to the WW...

Whoami?

Hi there

I didn't quite realise that this was an edited entry. Sorry about that.
