"Nicolas Sarkozy has committed gastronomic sacrilege and risked his reputation with the French public by giving up cheese, it has been claimed.
The French president's chef made the potentially embarrassing revelation that brie has been banned from the dinner table at the Elysee Palace.
Mr Sarkozy's culinary credibility had previously taken a blow when it emerged that he drinks no wine - a key source of French national pride.
The president's wholesome diet is said to have been inspired by his wife Carla, a former model who is 13 years his junior.As part of her strict health programme for her husband, she has him following a strenuous exercise regime and a frugal diet of fish, vegetables, salads and sorbets.
Cottage cheese is still allowed, it is understood.
However, with elections only three-weeks away, Mr Sarkozy has shown himself willing to break the ban if he believes it can earn him votes."
My comments: He deserves to lose the election. You can't be a Frenchman if you don't like cheese and wine. Cheese is good for you. And he lets his wife tell him what to eat? Sarko is a wimp. If I were French, I would vote for
Marine Le Pen.
