Snails are not a northern France thing though (unless you have a loose definition of north). It’s mostly central, with a huge correlation with tourist hotspots

Well, my objection is to the way they’re prepared in France, not the snails.

I’ve had snails in Morocco and giant forest snails in Ghana. The big ones are delicious if they’re wild caught. If they’re farmed, they taste like the rotten lettuce they get fed.

They confused Central French with Northern French, but it’s true that classic French cuisine, both northern and central, use too much dairy.

I mean I love France with all my being, but there’s no denying the use of cream and butter (or cheese in Northern French cuisine.
