Even French brand names are surrendering these days! I'm quite sure that "Franco-American" is as popular a brand name these days as Mitsubishi would have been during WW II.

They're selling 2 cans for $1.00 at the neighborhood grocery store, a lot of Tabasco sauce makes them pretty good.

LOL one of the competitors is "Heinz." It looks like Chef Boyardee is going to win this battle.

How can a nation who eat glorified snot in the form of l'escargot have the nerve to brand it as haute cuisine?

I don't think I have ever eaten a 'spaghetti-o'. Try to say away from the canned fat stuff.
I do like 'french bread' however on the shelf in the grocers'. I know it's not really from France....

AP and UPI reported the French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert from "run" to "hide". The only higher levels in France are "surrender" and "collaborate". This increase in the terror alert level was precipitated by a recent fire which destroyed one of France's white flag factories, disabling their military
