@UT I believe the difference may lie in a Full English Vs. coffee and croissant. The Full English breakfast is a heart attack on a plate...minus the puddings mind-

I want to know how the French can stay so lean with all the butter they consume. Must be something in the Mediterranean air. When I was teaching in Greece, I ate like a whore at the Vatican and lost over 30 lbs.
Ewww ! They eat plenty of fresh fruit which keeps things moving along ( that and the olive oil ). I have always found it interesting that in places like Greece and Turkey, they only have 2" soil connections to their toilets. Perhaps this is the reason in that nothing comes out that requires anything bigger. (Sorry, this is in the interests of science). One problem with this is that they do not put the toilet paper they use into the toilet for the fear of blocking it; they put it in a bin by the side. Double Ewww !
