Just tried my first French cake (an opera cake). Tasted a little weird, but surprisingly addictive.

Ah, this picture has unlocked something in my mind, a memory I'd thought was hidden away forever. It was a cake much like this one that I ate 20 long years ago, at a barbecue on the 4th of July. It was moist, delicious, and (unbeknownst to me) the last thing I would ever eat as a whole man. Not long after finishing the cake, the time came to set off fireworks (a 4th of July tradition, for unfamiliar foreigners). And this was a special year - my first chance to actually light the fireworks on my own, without adult assistance. Childish joy overcame me, caused me to make poor, rushed decisions. Before a minute had passed, things had run their course, and I had completely destroyed my penis and testicles with an improperly lit M80, the taste of cake still fresh in my mouth. I blame no one but myself for this occurrence and, although my father always said it wasn't my fault, that he should've been more attentive, I know it was always meant as a comforting lie. The shame of an androgyne son never left my father, and he ended his life several years later.

Normal cakes here taste much more sweet. They have lots of frosting over a layer of sponge. When you eat it, the overwhelming sensation is the sugar.
The opera I tried was also sweet, but it felt diluted and the sweetness didn't seem to be the same kind of sugar I associate with cakes. There was also some other flavor I can't put my hand on. It's hard to explain, but it didn't taste like a cake to me.

please consume french cakes, pastries and sweets with moderation
they are very high in sugar, and some of them even contain a lot of butter
Isaac Myers
Btw I don't know if they have these in Germany, but pic related is what the sugar of a normal cake tastes like. The French cake's sugar didn't taste right.
Really? It tasted less sweet than I expected from a cake.

I see. I don't like overly sweet cakes, I think they are bland since the sugar masks the taste of the other ingredients. But if you are used this level of sweetness your taste buds might become desensitized and then the opposite will be true, i.e. everything that is not overly sweet will taste bland.
Brody Richardson
I don't know what that is in your picture.

Also I 'm 5 foot 6 and 232 pounds (or 168 cm and 105 kg) so it's not like it could get much worse for me.
Easton Walker
Those are sugar packets. All the restaurants here have them at the tables.
Hmm, I see your point. It didn't taste bland though, just weird. I guess they used a lot of butter in the cake?

How is French food seen in Europe? Is it mostly domestic French buying things locally, or does the rest of the EU import it?

looks good
Liam Miller
Based, that's my favorite pastry
Zachary Carter
Everyone all over Europe eats huge amounts of French cheese and a fair amount of pastry and stuff, not so much 'normal' recipes. Most common one is beef bourguignon but that's just a beef stew so not too exotic
James Morris
Is it true that english food is disgusting asf? At least this is all what we think in France
Dominic Myers
The day to day food people make and eat is almost identical to French food, but you already know that you're just being a twat
Carson Wilson
I know this is globalization like everywhere else, i meant "traditional" food, like pudding or chips crisps, I never taste english food before

Jaxson Barnes
Thats what I mean, the 'normal' food is almost exactly the same as French, a lot of stews, soups, pies, sausage, meat and vegetables. The main difference is that you use more fat in the cooking but we use it in pastry
Noah Thompson
Never seen it on any shelve. There's this one bread called bögette, but I refrain from buying it.
