A French Diet?

Apparently, french women don't get fat, despite eating potentially fatty foods like bread and pastry. I have no idea if this is true, but the article I read about it was something I found fascinating. I've put some key points that the article makes below, but to view the full information yourself, feel free to visit http://www.webmd.com/diet/french-diet-american-women
