[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] The French often eat cheese by itself, not spread on bread or even stacked. Just a chunk o' cheese on its own. Brie especially.[/quote] Particularly at breakfast. At least at the hotel we stayed at. The breakfast buffet every morning looked like a lunchtime deli spread -- breads, cold cuts, cheese, and (very good) butter. A couple of salami 'n' brie sandwiches and a couple of cups of good French coffee will get you going in the morning. They don't make sandwiches, of course, but I didn't mind being the obvious tourist. [/quote] Other Europeans eat cheese for breakfast but not the French, in their homes, though it's possible your hotel did this to appease foreign tastes. Cheese is eaten as dessert or just before. Breakfast in France is typcially bread or a pastry with coffee.[/quote]
