where there are people, there is cheese.

An uber-nationalist French friend of mine once told me that the Chinese have no civilization. I was somewhat taken aback by that statement, until he explained that they have no cheese. QED, apparently.

Interesting. No cows to speak of. and no goats.
some cheese in the far eastern provences near Tibet, courtesy of the yaks....Very interesting, no large grazing areas, population has always subsisted on tillage agriculture for the last 2 or 3k years.....but no cheese.

but for the french to call anyone uncivilized.
