Paris: The Yogurt Aisle
First order of business when I arrived in Paris yesterday. Buy the yogurt.
The yogurt aisle at the supermarché will blow your mind.
Look at this photo and multiply it by 4 and that will give you an idea of how many choices there are.
In France, yogurt is a serious thing. Forget the skim milk and fake sugar, nutrasweet, and fake fruit flavor crap, this is the real deal.
Full fat and full flavor.
I have spoken about my favorite French yogurt in the past, and I will speak about it again.
It's what I eat here every a.m. for breakfast and a snack. It's like eating ice cream but with live cultures. Decadent and delicious (and healthy?).
I look for the stuff in the reusable clay pots and come home with a bunch of empty ones, thinking that some day I will use them for something!
Forget the Greek stuff; the drinkable stuff; the 0% fat stuff (which is fine, except when on vacation).
Did you know Dannon is really the Danone Co. in France?
Oui, it's true.

I once watched how French women eat. They consume all the good stuff, just small portions. Me? I love the plates overflowing....have fun
