Avertissement: Eating Too Much Can Cause Weight Gain

I returned from my trip to Europe with plenty of French magazines to keep me up-to-date on the goings on in l’Hexagone. About a week ago, I was reading Marie France magazine, when I came across an ad for chocolate with a big warning, the type you see on ads for tobacco, at the bottom that eating too much is unhealthy, with a link for Mangerbouger.fr. I visited the site and found out that it’s a resource for staying healthy through eating right and exercising. Maybe they ought to be putting these warnings in American ads. I don’t know if other countries have similar programs, [readers, please share!]. I’m glad I found this site though, because I think it’s a great way to introduce French culture and vocabulary about health and wellness at the same time.
