In a shocking turn of events, the price of potatoes in France has skyrocketed to a record high, making french fries a rare and expensive delicacy. The reason for this unprecedented situation is the disastrous economic policy of the French government, which has imposed heavy taxes and tariffs on agricultural products, especially those imported from neighboring countries.
The French people, who are known for their love of french fries, are outraged and dismayed by this development. Many have taken to the streets to protest and demand a change in the government. Some have even resorted to smuggling potatoes across the border, risking fines and imprisonment.
The French government, however, has defended its policy, claiming that it is necessary to protect the national interests and sovereignty of France. The government has also launched a campaign to promote alternative sources of starch, such as bread, pasta, and rice. The slogan of the campaign is: “Forget the fries, embrace the grains!”
