The French get a weird rap of being cowards and expert surrenderers, but honestly I'm starting to think that's some sort of American media psyop. Let's remember the French made snails into luxury cuisine (which means they discovered snails are edible in the first place), dethroned Latin as the lingua franca, and brought their feudal lords to the guillotine. The latter one a service they should absolutely export.
I agree with everything you've said except the bit about snails. People were already eating snails back in ancient Rome, probably even earlier than that. The French did however have the brilliant idea of drenching their snails in garlic+butter+parsley.
Which is honestly the best part in eating snails. With a fuckton of bread to soak all this delicious, delicious garlicky butter.
