I don't really like food
Yes, that is an actual quote from one of the students in my group. Ahhhhhh. Teenagers. It's sad, scary and funny to think that I was just like them though. Everyone was young once and a bit crazy.
We went on an excursion to Vevey and Montreux yesterday. So, I can now say that I frequent the Montreux Jazz Festival. Woohoo. It was rainy and cold though, so not too much fun.
In Vevey we went to the MuseƩ des Jeux and the Alimentarium, or Food Museum. Sans blague, when I saw a diagram of what we ate 100 years ago and what we eat today, my diet at my host family was more like the diet 100 years ago. A LOT of bread, not very much meat, a few veggies, and a few fruits. None of this chips, frozen meat, soda, carbonated water stuff.
We eat tons of bread. They just killed one of their chickens tonight so they can have meat for the next few days. They also milked a cow so now we have the real deal fresh milk. (Laurie, you would just love it!!) It's ok, because it just gives me more reason to endulge my chocolate addiction when I go to town and to eat pizza, meat and wine. Have I mentioned that the chocolate here is divine?
