In France, you have two sides: those who spread salted butter, those who spread sweet butter. Many different kinds of jam exist, from the standard strawberry or red berries to peach, bitter orange, rhubarb or fig.

You can choose between “ la baguette ordinaire”, the normal baguette, and “ la baguette tradition”, the tradition baguette. Real French people do not buy their baguette at the supermarket but at the bakery (Click here to read more about the best baguettes in Paris).
