Flour power

sacks of farine


Two different people snickered at me when I snapped a photo of this truck. I found it blocking traffic, parked outside a boulangerie on rue du Dragon and thought it symbolized a certain French philosophy: good bread is more important than getting somewhere in a hurry, n'est-ce pas?


The giant sacks are labelled farine pour pain tradition française, or "flour for traditional French bread." And the amount of sacks boggles my mind. You could make A LOT of bread from the flour in this truck.
