  • Let the French Eat their Food In France

    So go back to France then. I think it looks delicious and I know I love all the ingredients. It's not an artwork, it's food. I personally can't wait to whip up a batch to share with all my American Friends. Peace Out.

  • French and Embarrassed....

    zipporika - May 30, 2008 08:50:23 AM PST
    Although I couldn't find the comment written by the French person that caused all the 'controversy', please let me say that not all French people are food snobs and/or critical of tuna salad recipes... I'm embarrassed that a French person has been such an awful representative of a culture that actually DOES have many lovely and polite people in it! (and which loves good old tuna salad!!!) Thanks...

    Hey Frenchy, food is suppose to "taste" good not so much "look" good. You should know that coming from a country where snails are on the menu!

    Our tuna salad has a Mediterranean twist: olives and roasted red peppers. Have this sandwich for lunch at home or work or on a picnic, served with a tomato salad.

    nothing about France was indicated. No one was thinking about the french.
