French Retail Food – Observation 5

A few days ago while traveling from Toulon to Nice we stopped at a filling station “take away” for food. This was a simple fast food place selling vienas and chips, hot dogs, pizza, quiche, rolls etc and not a Jucy Lucy type establishment!

Alongside the menus and options was the advert pictured below:

This was for the “Sandwich of the Month” which is stated to be enriched with omega three. There is also a note at the bottom on eating five fruit and vegetables a day. Interesting that a “run of the mill” outlet, although linked to one of the bigger chains, offers this kind of product to its consumers in a land where eating and drinking tends to focus on the specialities eg pate de fois gras, confit au canard, saucicon, pastis and red wine wich show little concern for nutrition and healthiness.
