The French have forgotten what real cheese is like.

So, to remind them, we're going to show them fake boobs.

More fallout and degradation of French culture and agricultural products because of EU “standards.”

I wonder how much residual effect is due to the boycotts when France opposed us at the UN on Iraq?

Oh and that’s some fine looking cheese in those pictures.

French Cheese.

Brought to you by girls who smell more like cheese than the cheese they want you to buy.

(It’s a *French* thing.)

Globalisation and safety regulations introduced by the European Union have played a part. Pasteurisation – the germ killing process – has helped wipe out many raw-milk cheeses.

The US has long banned the importation of raw milk cheeses, supposedly for safely reasons. The real reason is to protect the Wisconsin cheese industry. Funny thing is, if you look you can still find imported raw milk cheeses every now and then, even at Kroger sometimes.

"French Cheese.

But it ain't half bad once you get past the smell.

If they want to sell more cheese, they need to lower their prices.
