BTW, supoosedly the red wine is why the French don't have as much heart disease as the should considering their diet. The so-called French mystery..........
I know, that and their #Q%#!&&! pastries, and none of the women have cellulite and they smoke like trains!
Other factors are smaller portion sizes there and the fact that they just tend to walk more.
