Being thin in France

It's become a meme of its own, the thin French. The BBC weighs in (sorry, couldn't resist the pun) on the subject. I more or less agree with them: small portions and few snacks, though I also agree with them that supersizing and noshing are starting to become more common.

One other thing is the prevalence of diet aid ads in the pharmacy windows. I hate to think what nasty cocktails might be in those.
