Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches may be a staple in American cafeteria lunch boxes, but the French are not fans.
"They just don’t see what the big deal about it [is] as there are so many better things in the world, and things that don’t totally clutter and stuff your mouth when you eat them." – David from "Ask A Frenchman"
The butter found in the United States doesn’t compare to butter in France.
"French butter, even the standardized, industrialized kind has a sweet and sour tangy quality that American butter lacks. US butter tastes like, well, fat. Anthony Bourdain made me realize this (among other things). No wonder people use Crisco (yuck) and similar substitutes." – Antonio Balvet
