[quote=Anonymous]I read it. I was a little disappointed that it read more like a memoir than anything else. As for the eating...basically the author learned that French kids (in daycare and at home) eat whatever is given to them. Parents provide thoughtful, nutritious and labor-intensive meals, therefore there's no short-order cooking. Absolutely no snacking. Except, what they do is: breakfast, lunch, gouter (small amount of food) after school, then a late dinner. It irritated me that the author made such a point of railing against North American's penchant for snacking, yet she doesn't acknowledge that the 'gouter" is obviously a "snack." And, that's about all I got from it. It's an easy read.[/quote]
