It seems that the article says that the merchants aren't buying the goods. Is it them or their customers (you guys in the US) who are driving this boycott.

Being in England we don't really ever boycott French goods as we have always disliked them :biggrin:

Been drinking Spanish wines in Spain, but the few French wines I've had since we've been back seem undamaged. Maybe it's because they were bought before the war. :laugh:

We're gpoing out to dinner at an American restaurant with a French couple tonight. Maybe I should have called the restaurant to see if they served the French wine. Hate to think our dinner companions won't be able to drink. I suppose I just don't get it. I've eaten in a number of restaurants that claimed they didn't serve crabs.
