Brie! Gag me with a spoon! To each his own.

Searhing for the origin or Gruyere (I like fondue)...

Roquefort and grueyere and slippery Brie
All of these cheeses they happen to me

Somebody ring the cheese alarm

Americans can only take so much harassments from the ungrateful frogs and the krauts, then Americans will usually do something about it.

Even if you are buying something American (and you know it is American) ask if it is french, germany, russian, belgium or austria any way. It will give the retailer an useasy feeling the next time he makes reorders that he might not be able to unload cr@p from these countries if he orders it.

Wisconsin thanks you for that plug!

I just threw out some vintage Christian Dior clothes and hats...I figure I could have sold them but then that means I would have had to deal with a someone who wanted to buy them. I do not want to be around anyone that wants anything french.

Ah, but this is going to be tough for me.

I like my Porsche. Or did. It lost it's value in a split second, so it's not an issue anymore. And as Mark Twain once asked, "How do the Germans tell the difference between their wine & vinegar? They put labels on the vinegar."

But I do like Brie. And I really like my Perrier-Jouet. Especially the stuff with the hand painted flowers! The Vhampagen Princesse De France is tasty, too (and cheaper!). But I can join the boycott, since I can't get anymore anyway. Kinda glad I stocked up, and maybe after a month the prices will tank, so when I go back to the states I can stock up again! :^)

Ooh. And Belgian Waffles. I really like them. But, no restaurant on my island serves them. Wow, this is going to be an easy boycott! BOYCOTT!
BOYCOTT!
BOYCOTT!
BOYCOTT!

Don't know about the BMW plants in Sc but I believe other plants owned by foreign car companies in the US are free of the UAW.

Wish GM and Ford could be free of the UAW.

Apparently the SC BMW plant is non unionized also. This is unfair to Ford, and GM. The Unions in America is somewhat out of control. If they don't shape-up, it could mean the end of manufacturing , and other unionized enterprises in America.

I'll boycott all rotton smelling cheese and cheap tasting wine and I'll be 90% right. (French or German)

I'd rather drink Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill than drinking any French Swill

Add to your list at least 6 Mexican cheeses, all produced in the U.S. You like Mexican food? The cheese may be the reason.

I'm going to Europe in a few months and I've noticed that Air France had been showing up on www.cheaptickets.com as the cheapest until this week. I refuse to go with them in any case, I'll take British Air or VirginAtlantic instead.
