Why Is French Cuisine The Worst In The World?

More I find out about French cuisine, the more disgusted I become.

My younger view of them is they elate refugee food, probably because they were always living in the swamps hiding from the Germans. They eat Snails and Frogs, both plentiful in the swamps, and also horse meat.... in order to get a American to eat horse meat, you would have to starve them for a long time. That's desperation food, best left in the Paleolithic.

Then in my teens I discovered they force fed ducks, Foie Gras, which was very disturbing to find out. But a short while ago I discovered they have a way more inhumane and disturbing dish, Pressed Duck, Canard à la Presse, where you gotta hand strangle a live duck, then scoop out it's intestines, then put it in a hand cranked press till it's blood squirts out, collect the blood up, cook the squished duck meat, and pour the blood all over it. It's supposed to be the height of luxury, but it sounds like some crazy dish invented in the basement of the house from Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

Oh yeah, they also throw bolongna and a slice of cheese in some white bread roll and act like that is their original national dish. That's just sad. Someone's mother didn't like their children and the food she made for them caught on.

I'm afraid to learn anymore about French cooking. What a terrible national cuisine.

I am a mixture of British, Scots, Nordic people, and so on...no French in my ancestry whatsoever, but I do have to defend their cooking. The French cook with wine and butter, and garlic, and even manage to make snails taste tender and good.
@4meAndyou They have access to perfectly legitimate food stuffs, they shouldn't resprt to cooking with snails. A barbaric people.

@Dignaga I once read the story of how that practice started. I won't mention it here, because I won't change your mind, which is set. But I would like to point out that almost ALL nations are the descendants of barbarous ancestors, and most nations have food customs and practices that seem disgusting to those who were raised in a different culture.
@4meAndyou America only eats good and wholesome food, blessed by God and the sacredness of the American soil.

@Dignaga Now THAT is definitely not true! 🤣🤣🤣
@4meAndyou Well, some of it is imported from lesser peoples. But when you eat all American, you know it is good.

@Dignaga There is no such thing as a "lesser people". There is good healthy ORGANIC food grown in America, but even then, the soil itself can contain heavy metals. You should talk to my friend Cherokeepatti, who is something of an expert on healthy foods.
@4meAndyou I don't trust organics. They historically vaused alot of sickness, plagues and famines. Give me Montsanto any day.

@Dignaga Okay...I get it. Is this Andy'sAttic's alt account? 🤣🤣🤣
@4meAndyou I don't know who that is, but I've eaten Andy's Candies a few times before.
