    An American is having breakfast one morning (coffee, croissants, bread, butter and jam) when a Frenchman, chewing gum, sits down next to him.  The American ignores the Frenchman who, never the less, starts a conversation. French man: "You American folk eat the whole bread??" American (in a bad mood): "Of course". French:  (after blowing a huge bubble) "We don't. In France, we only eat what's inside. The crusts we collect in a container, recycle it, transform them into croissants and sell them to the states." The Frenchman has a smirk on his face.  The American listens in silence. The Frenchman persists:  "Do you eat jelly with the bread??" American: "Of Course." Frenchman: (cracking his gum between his teeth and chucking). "We don't.  In France we eat fresh fruit for breakfast, then we put all the peel, seeds, and leftovers in containers, recycle them, transform them into jam and sell the jam to the states." The American then asks: "Do you have sex in France?" Frenchman: "Why of course we do", he says with a big smirk. American: "And what do you do with the condoms once you've used them?" Frenchman: "We throw  them away, of course." American: "We don't.  In America, we put them in a container, recycle them, melt them down into chewing gum and sell them to France." Steven J.

        Funny joke (repost though) but I have to say that you yanks and you frogs had better stop dissing each other because it is turning ugly. Soon it will go beyond just renaming fast food and then everyone will regret it, even the Brits who hate the frogs more than the yanks.
