Winter Sucks

[Jeremy McCreary]

As for me, I was to the U.S. for three times and once to Canada (an average stay of 2 weeks)

And apparently that makes you an expert on American food from coast to coast. Quick study!

No Jeremy.
I cannot eat American food. What's hard to understand? For instance, I'd like eggs to have some taste.

Why personal?

You're Polish, so I assume you mean pickled eggs.

Here in America we only eat those in dive bars after you've had enough Coors Light to sufficiently dull the senses.

Obviously I dont actually believe all French food is awful, but Im coming from personal experience from ten years of riding the area with locals and visiting places they consider high end food.
My friends are not picky at all, in fact they will eat anything, but it got so bad we were only going in courtesy.
The smell..jesus, they flat refuse to cook anything properly and thats why half the country has toxoplasmosis for life.
Theres rarely a menu, you just get what theyve 'cooked', one meal was offal wrapped in lamb intestines, when I say 'cooked'...it was warm.
Have you ever been to a tannery where the boil pig skins, the smell is skunk level of baulk..well thats what it smelled like.
I guess what I mean is French food outside of tourist areas can be of a level beyond what most non French people can tolerate.

No, I mean regular boiled or fried eggs. Am I wrong to believe all American eggs have white shells?

The issue is, I and Brix hate visiting too warm countries, so we cannot try the genuine French food to find out. (The holiday in Tuscany 2022 was so terribly hot we broke for a couple of months!)

On the other hand, is the French Brie that awful? (Own photo)

Yes. Brown eggs are local eggs. We have plenty of small farms, and local people who have layers and sell them at the farmer's market or in a roadside shed. You can even get local duck and quail eggs. What a country!

Brown eggs are local eggs.

I'm sure these are tasty!

You can also get organic brown eggs in the supermarket. There's no comparison in taste to the generic white eggs from the monster egg farms. This is what we have for breakfast.

Now I can understand why I could not try good American eggs on my short visits!

My town is known for its eggs and farm to table food.
