I was 10 before we were taken to one, it was our first takeway/junkfood experience!<BR/><BR/>Its pretty rare to find one in France if you dont live in a big city. But I read about their animal treatment/abbatoir practices so now I can't even visit one out of nostalgia, dammit.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Am I the only person in the world who has never been to a Starbucks?screamishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877496725306468555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17042141.post-48863624880184336192008-03-14T00:43:00.000+01:002008-03-14T00:43:00.000+01:00I stopped for lunch at McDs in Normandy last summe...I stopped for lunch at McDs in Normandy last summer, the delux potatoes were devine. <BR/><BR/>90 minutes by train from central Paris, I think I'd go every week. <BR/><BR/>DGTravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787024407420088973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17042141.post-67517572795570595302008-03-13T17:21:00.000+01:002008-03-13T17:21:00.000+01:00David, I agree.

I ordered a tiny order of 'Hot Wings' and I couldnt finish them. But that's Ok. I just needed to taste it for 10 minutes. I'm officially over it.<BR/><BR/>Starbucks. Eh, over-priced on any continent, but seems especially superfluous in France. 3 euros for cat piss?
