Phuong and I, well mostly Phuong, have been looking for baby food here in France that doesn't have additives like sugar or preservatives. Since we could seldom find anything suitable, we always asked ourselves why Gerber couldn't come over here and dominate the market with normal baby food that is just vegetable+water. Well, when I was doing my French homework, I found out why. The word gerber is a French verb meaning "to vomit". Little wonder they couldn't make any inroads to the French marketplace since I'm guessing that no French mother wants to feed her child vomit.
