  1. In pastries shops, a pastry costs between 3 to 6 euros and it can be delicious and creative. We have more and more organic food or products ( produits BIO), those products are more expensive than the regular ones, but the price of some tends to decrease or be affordable

  2. 15:23: It is not a "galette des rois" but a Breton cake, the "Kouign amann". Excellent but very rich in butter and calories!
    By looking for the recipe, you can reproduce it at home!🥖🧁☕

  3. Regarding organic food pricing, the state should intervene to regulate the permissible ingredients and practices, rather than the price itself. This is also why Europeans tend to avoid American food products. It's not solely due to health concerns, but because our own market, with its regulated standards, cannot compete with imports if left unchecked.

  4. 03:30 In French hypermarkets it is common to find a whole area for fruits and vegetables, a fishmonger, a butcher, a bakery, and so on

  5. Cuisine (or more precisely gastronomy) is something very important in France. French cuisine is renowned for being one of the most refined in the world, alongside Italian or Japanese cuisine.

  6. at 7:50 it's 11 euros and 8 euros the price. The symbol of euros is € and therefore close to C and you confuse them. To be fair at first I thougt it was a 0 and not €, so the problem is that it isn't showing good in the video.

    An euro is a little bit more than a dollar, so it's close to 11$ and 8$. It's quite expansive, even for Paris but it seems fair for its quality according ti the lengh of the queue.

  7. Coucou Charly. Encore un thème que j'aime bien. Oui nos chefs pâtissiers sont de plus en plus jeunes et talentueux.. nous sommes doués pour réaliser de jolies et délicieuses pâtisseries..mais il vaut mieux aller en boulangerie pâtisserie que les hypermarchés..je pense..Charly vous méritez plus de vues et de pouces levés et de commentaires. au fait € c est le symbole euro..❤❤
    .

  8. I pay 4.75€ for a pack of 20 eggs. It's even cheaper in some places.
    But in the US, you are unlucky at this time with bird flu. This could happen to us next. That's all.

  9. Les grandes villes ne représentent pas la réalité ,la plupart des français achètent leurs gâteaux ( pâtisseries ) chez le boulanger bdu coin et pas des trucs pour bobos qui coûtent une fortune et qui ne sont pas forcément / toujours meilleurs …

  10. Hello Charlie, it's not French people who buy this pastry for 5000 euros, it's not at all in our mentality! The French are simple people and we don't like bling. Cédric Grolet's pastries cost 11 and 8 euros. It's more expensive than in other pastries but it's understandable because there is a lot of work, time to develop and research. People buy either to taste because he was world champion, which I understand, or for a special occasion. Christophe Michalak, who can be seen in the report, was world champion in 2005 and many other French pastry chefs. There are a lot of really good pastry shops in Paris and all over France that are cheaper. French pastry is lighter and less sweet than before which allows you to feel the flavors better, that's what he meant, I think. Of course, there are some great old cakes that are still delicious. In France, organic products are also more expensive and not everyone can buy them, even if some products become cheaper. From what I've been told, there are fewer regulations in the United States on food products to prevent harmful products in the diet (I don't know if that's true). It will surely evolve! For many French people, without buying organic, we prefer to buy less but a quality product that tastes good, but unfortunately the poorest cannot even make this choice!

  11. I shouldn't be saying that… sorry. But your hair finally looks good… in fact very nice (I remember you at your beginnings).
    Take it or leave it hehe 🙂

  12. (you can delete this comment). At first he had "wanna-be" rastas like he was going from Babylon to Zion. It even could have been insulting to some people and their religion hehe. But never mind. Now he is looking fine with his hair cut (100 % serious)

  13. You have doubts about the opportunity to have healthy food for poor people but seeing the fact as you say is accepting the food producers and transformers have the right just poison people only because they have no money ? We also have this debate in France which some industrialists describe as wokist but in general the population here realizes that it is no longer possible to continue on this way. Economicaly industrial food is what it is only because of mass production but mass production could care about the quality of ingredients.
    By the way we often say that french eat tasty food when americans eat colors, that's the idea, I see you asking questions in other videos about for example what could tast dandelion in a chocolate and you must understand that cooks are creators to bring you best original food and if it is successful the recipie can be used as a standard just like croissants and pains au chocolat. And as say many mothers here to their children tasting new food "Taste and if you dislike don't disgust the others". For me M&Ms are the illustation of american produces that shouldn't exist full of sugar and colors and artificial chocolate taste !

  14. The patisserie presented here is in Paris and the prices are high because its clientele is the bourgeoisie of the capital… it is not an ordinary patisserie … it’s the equivalent of haute couture in pastry making …

  15. for my birthday and fir the birthday of ly girlfriend we buy some desserts of cédric grolet, pierre hermé ans philippe conticcini and other great pastery chef, they are great and still pretty affordable compared to a michelin star restaurant, as a comparaison. the pastry classroom from a known chef is very expensive.

  16. 20:16 there's a huge difference between America and the rest of the world on Food. America is hugely constructed to profit corporations, where in the rest of the world, food is not to be messed with. So our food is still reasonnable. You can find a pound of apple for less than $2

  17. Charlie, Im well aware to you really like the Netherlands.

    Please get a look at Endemol ; the TV shows that you believed were american are in fact Dutch. He has created almost EVERY SINGLE MTV show.

  18. Galeries Lafayette aren't malls (centre commercial in French) but department stores (grand magasins) like Macy's in the US or Harrods in the UK.
    In this video France 24 should've disambiguated "chou" (litteraly "cabbage" in French because the puffy pastrry vaguely has the same shape) from the English homophone "shoe".
    Macaroons (rocher coco in French) and macarons are two distinct pastries. Macaroons are based on coconuts and macarons are based on almonds.
    7:17 It's Euros (€) not cents. If it was cents they woulld sell like hot cakes (pun intended) with a ten miles queue!
    15:28 Kouign-amann isn't a king's cake, it can be described as a boosted up version of it with its buttter/sugar ratio (1/3 or each ingredient in the pastry).

  19. There are malls also in France. But this is a department store. There are department stores in France with a food section, not all of them but some of them. This one "Les Galeries Lafayette" is rather fancy and the food section is gourmet food. You would have the same in London, like Harrods, Fortnum & Mason.

  20. I don't know how to feel about this. My grandfather was a pastry and chocolate chef, he owned a pastry and chocolate shop. I remember being a kid in the laboratory and it seemed like a very natural a common business.
