They don't sell it in France. Anyone in France know of a local
alternative. P. L E. A. S. E.

When I was living in France donkey's years ago it was almost impossible to get sliced bread of any kind, and if you could find it, it was very expensive. We also found that, if we went to a boulangerie and got a freshly-baked loaf we really liked, we could never get it again because we didn't know all the different names for different types of loaf!

I'd suggest asking for bread baked using soya flour, as it is this that lowers the carb count per slice, and the inclusion of seeds will lower the GI (Glycaemic Index), meaning it will release energy slowly and steadily and reduce the likelihood of blood sugar spikes 🙂

Having said that, I'd now really like a fresh baguette, torn in half lengthwise, liberally spread with salted butter and with a whole banana stuck in the middle! 🙂 Mmmmm! 😱 🙂

It's all sold out in our Iceland I'm afraid! 🙄
