You can get a milkshake in France. But I don\u0092t think they quite understand what it\u0092s supposed to be.<\/p>\n
\tWe first discovered that milkshakes are available at McDonalds. Which makes sense, since despite the tiny coffees is still basically an American fast food place. We discovered this because Kaitlyn wanted one. Bill tried it and said it was pretty good. I ordered her one the other day as her reward for behaving and actually trying during her French lesson. I watched them make it. Ok, they didn\u0092t make anything. The girl stuck a cup under the soft serve machine and pushed a button to turn the soft serve into soft serve diarrhea. That\u0092s what they handed over as a milkshake. Gross.<\/p>\n
\tThen today I noticed a recipe inside our package of Laughing Cow soft cheese triangles. (Just like you can get at home) It\u0092s a recipe for what it says is a milk shake. You should be able to find these things in the US:<\/p>\n
\t200 grams strawberries
\n\t50 grams strawberry candies (Tagada to be specific. I had to google it to find out what it is)
\n\t4 portions of Laughing Cow soft cheese.
\n\t1\/2 liter of milk<\/p>\n
Put it all in a mixer and blend. Pour into glasses and decorate with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.<\/p>\n
\tOn top???? Anyone with any milkshake knowledge realizes that the ice cream is a vital ingredient INSIDE the shake. Not outside it. That\u0092s like making a martini with the vermouth on the side. <\/p>\n
\tRemember: martinis and milkshakes should not be ordered here. (They can\u0092t make an American martini, either. To them a martini is a nasty Italian wine liquor.) And on the same note: baguettes and escargot are probably best left to the French. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
