French proverb
Apparently the Emperor Napoléon had the reputation of not being a big eater. Good for him… But it is true that sometimes, we the humble people are legitimately VERY hungry. And sometimes, our budget can be tight… So what should we do?
In fact, since several years, eating has been a headache. The media constantly torment us with contradictory messages. Between what we should and shouldn’t eat. We get lost…
So here are 5 basics tips that might help you in this storm :
1_Sandwich bread (soft bread) : much more economical than the baguette
The idea:
_First, wheat has been revered since the dawn of time. Don’t listen to the nonsenses about the gluten. The wheat is the basis of the diet of the most humble.

_Then, we sometimes think that it is a product that we eat for breakfast. But in fact it can be consumed whenever you want. Look at the “ club ” (triangle) sandwiches, they are made from sandwich bread and they are ideal for lunch and dinner.
_You can put it in the toaster if you wish.
Hummm… Delicious…
