What racial problems did france face in the 1940's.

not the food itself (which is not bad) but the relationship with food. In France, food is fun and food is interesting : food is not something you ingest when you are hungry. Basically : the French have structured meals where they enjoy the food and talk together, they do NOT eat between meals, eat more vegetables, less fast-food and do not drink too much soft drinks, etc... This education starts at school (see the menu in a Primary schooll in Paris). The result : much less heart disease and diabetes, much less over-weight people and more pleasure! Read about "the ugly American eater" and more about food.
