IMO French food is horrible, bordering on inedible.

Mexicans, Italians, and even Germans know how to cook. French people don't.

See how that works? You're assuming that your personal food prejudices and "what food is supposed to taste like" are identical.

They aren't.

Oh no, I'm not assuming anything about cooking, just about the quality of ingredients.

One person's "high quality ingredient" is another person's rotten cheese.

I note that McDonalds sells billions of euros of burgers in France. They aren't all being eaten by American tourists.

Indeed, the problem is moving in Europe too.

Again, it's not misplaced patriotism. It's just story telling : I went there, I tried that, I talked to these people, and this is what I got.
