It's one of the items on my list of reasons against moving to France one day.

I see their argument, if that's "normal". We don't want people trying to ban toad-in-the-hole because it doesn't have toads.

But I also feel like, "it's ok that we're lying, everyone knows we're lying" is a crappy argument. Wouldn't it be better if we DID enforce some sort of truth in names and in advertising so people COULD believe it? Even if they were young, or old, or didn't speak english well?
