Vive Le Subway

By on 9.28.05 @ 12:15AM

The folks at Miquelon.org, France's Maginot Line on the web, are trying to start a protest campaign against the Subway sandwich chain. Subway's offense? Its new Chicken Cordon Bleu sandwich, the ad for which, complains the Miqueloniers' editorial -- the site's full name is MIQUELON.ORG - THE VIEW FROM FRANCE - STOP FRANCE BASHING -- says, "France and Chicken. Somehow it just goes together." I, too, am appalled by that sentence. It should read, "France and Chicken. Somehow they just go together."
