Some things that surpise French people about America:

You have to pay for school.

Chicken's eggs are white.

You have to pay for the doctor.

An average bottle of wine costs more than the equivalent of 5 euro.

You buy bread only once a week.

You can enter university as "undeclared."

You have less than 5 weeks of vacation a year.

Your lunch break is 45 minutes long.

Cheese is processed.

Rachel you are very creative with all the different mixtures that you are experimenting with. You must teach me to make yogurt. Does yogurt go well with PA Dutch Shoofly pie? You have to come to our kitchen and make a few successful and healthy treats for PaPa and I.
