„Something quick and easy to prepare“ for dinner.. while showing soupe à l‘oignon where the first step is caramelizing onions and stirring for half an hour, then add water and cook it down, making croutons or broil the soup with bread and cheese. Personally my weeknight dinners are ramen. Or pasta with a sauce I can make before the pasta is al dente.

This is more what a French would eat on vacation. I don't think a lot of people would eat a 3 course meal everyday, though that's what you would eat at a restaurant or for family dinners. Those are occasional. The sweet breakfast is accurate, although I would never dunk bread into my beverage, but I know a lot of people do it. As for the ligther meal in the evening, it depends of your lifestyle, whether your work allows you to eat a full meal at lunch or not.

This is realistic except the lunch duration of several hours, that’s only a few times a year with family. On workdays lunch break is usually an hour.

As a french, i used to have the same breakfast, but most people dunk the baguette in hot chocolate and its SO GOOD! Lunch like this one are for family reunion of something like this. In a day to day life, its more often a quick lunch prepared the day before or a sandwich or going somewhere quick. But it also depends cause older generations love to eat like that! (But by tradition, thats why we have 2 hours of lunch break at school) At home, my mom used to cook for diner these typical french diners everyday (she loves cooking) but most of the time people are exhausted and prepare something quick

It is wild learning about all of this and comparing to my own life. 70% of my ancestors came from France but migrated to southern Louisiana in the late 1700's. I grew up speaking broken Cajun French ((the French language spoken in the 1700's)) so I have been trying to learn more about France and the culture and it is wildly different from Cajun culture. We adopted and meshed with the Creoloes from this area and our accents are veryyyyy different even when speaking in Cajun French. Our styles, foods..etc. is also just so different. I plan on becoming fluent in modern French soon, because sadly our 1700's style version of French is a dying language here. I would love to learn enough to blend into France one day, since it is where my ancestors were born and walked.♡

That's actually super close to what we learned in school what the french eat. The only difference is that the several course meal would be dinner.

French Canadians like their maple syrup pancakes, many types of baguettes, muffins, some have crepes and fresh butter and jam, and they love their mochas or cappuchinos not espresso's. They have fruit and vegetables at all meals. They are very healthy so sweets eaten in the morning and less throughout the day.

Healthy 21st century French meal from now. Breakfast: A French person from the geo-administrative centers of France can start the day with a healthy breakfast, such as a wholemeal croissant with goat cheese and tomatoes, accompanied by fresh fruit juice. Lunch: For lunch, he can opt for a quinoa salad with grilled vegetables and yogurt sauce, accompanied by homemade vegetable soup. Snack: For an afternoon snack, he can enjoy a berry smoothie with Greek yogurt and chia seeds, or a handful of nuts and dried fruit. Dinner: For dinner, he can enjoy a dish of mushroom risotto with spinach and parmesan cheese, followed by a fresh fruit dessert with some natural yogurt. These meal options are healthy, rich in nutrients and ideal for those who practice physical activities and care about a balanced diet. Furthermore, they are typical dishes from the central geo-administrative regions of France, known for its sophisticated and tasty cuisine.

Who cares ? Its general

This is equivalent to thinking that every Indian eats Naan and butter chicken on an average day.. with a mango lassi on a side...

So many vegetables...in every meal.

French here; this is very well spotted! Living in america for 8 years now, I had time to reflect on my previous food habit. A lot of wholefood, absolutely right, I would add in small portions, especially the appetizer that is indeed shredded raw veggies, or cooked veggies with a light dressing. Cheese would be consumed as well in very small portion with greens on side. Again, a lot of accurate infos. Bravo!

Only old people still have their coffee in a bowl these days 😂

Pro tip: visit a "cave" that does tastings! Very french, available everywhere almost 😊😊 also learn quickly a few french words, we love tourists that do an effort, and it will pay off 😊

« Pain au chocolat » or « Chocolatine » ? It’s a war issue in France ! 😂

No debate. It's Pain au chocolat. Only the minority who think it's called Chocolatine believe there is a war between those expressions.

Lunch doesn’t last hours. Working people do not consume wine at lunchtime. Salted butter in Brittany yes, not in the rest of France.

Brittany + Pays de la loire+ Centre + Ile de France + Haut de France. Don't speak if you don"t know

It's all about timing. Eating a large meal in the middle of the day will give you more energie and help you lose the calories more easily because your day is not over after lunch....that's the secret "health benefit"...not the food itself...but the time of day you eat the most food.

Can an actual French person do this instead of a tourist?

you should try sudanese cuisine!

My boyfriend is french and this is so accurate. Right down to dunking the bread in coffee.

apart from showing lots of bread, the rest seem quite accurate. The quantities though are too much. I prefer to have just one plate and usually eat rice with vegetables and fish or a bowl of soup. What you see in this video represents what you have at the restaurant otherwise at home it's much simpler

I dated a french person for years and never saw them dip bread in a bowlll of coffeeeee 😭

Dipping bread in coffee in France is very usual. I do it, my parents do it, my grandparents did it.

That cheese 😋

it's more accurate than most "what french people eat" videos. but lunch doesn't go for hours and we don't drink wine every munch.

My grandparents ate like that, yes... Now for me it's more sandwiches for the working days tbh. Or ramen cup.

I'm pretty sure that nobody has time for a 3 course meal during lunchtime. Also all of the foods shown here are super greasy and fattening.

How is a glass of wine sneaky 🤔 and it’s definitely not sneaky in France as they enjoy drinking wine with their main meal; I think the person who made this video is a sneaky person because there’s nothing sneaky about wine so she’s probably projecting her sneakiness - beware of sneaky people 😊

Food looks delicious 😋 😊

Congrats, this might be the most ironic comment ever posted on YT. 1) the commenter is *not* American 2) the rest of the world agrees the French are the biggest assholes That aside, I’m always pleased to see an America hater show their ignorance.😊

This is so cliché. That's the traditional last century urban society style (completely different in rural areas). Not every french person eats baguette for breakfast (I used to do it once every Sunday when I was still in France) and not always with salted butter and jam (ask a normand what they think of salted butter and you'll see). The meal is just a restaurant 3 course meal from Paris so not really representative of the food variety in other french regions and the average person would most likely just have one dish. French food has a lot of fat dishes (cassoulet, carbonade, tartiflette, choucroutes just to quote a few) + We say French food or French Cuisine but really it's French CuisineS as it traditonally changes with every region.
