Well, when I went to France with the school at age 10 or 11, frogs legs were certainly on the menu, - and I tried them. Not bad either ! Plus I could leap tall buildings in a single bound for weeks afterwards. Well, the first bit is true anyhow

The Walloons, who live in Belgium's southern provinces, are the country's French-speaking inhabitants. Their culture contrasts with that of the Flemings, who inhabit the northern part of the country and speak Flemish, a language similar to Dutch. The Walloons' closest cultural ties are to France and other countries in which Romance languages are spoken. http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G2-3435900050.html
