Two and a half cheers for the robust common sense of French women
Harris Interactive has been asking French women impertinent questions about diets, and a rather depressing 83% 'fess up to watching what they eat.
In a truly epic piece of denial, the leading cause of weight put on is 'nibbling' (Named by 40%), apparently, followed by stress (32%), an unbalanced diet (29% ) and fourth 'eating too much' (25%). Right...
Anyway, here's the bit which merits 2 & 1/2 cheers:
"Bread is regarded as the most essential food (for about half of the women: 47%). Chocolate (38%), cheese (37%) and pasta (35%) were other foods women could not do without".
Hear hear. To adapt Socrates, the cheeseless life is not worth living.
