    They just call it beef there. Kind of like how the French call toasted bread “le pain internationale” and French toast is just toast.

      Is this a Quebec thing ? I have never ever heard anyone say “le pain international” in my entire life as a French man, sacre blue !

      Toast bread = pain de mie

      French toast = pain perdu

        It was a joke.

        I am actually half French Canadian but my dad had us raised English only, and now I’m trying to relearn it.

        It sucked going to my grandfather’s funeral and the extended family thought I was my cousin’s friend because I didn’t speak French.

          It made me angry. This is the sign of an excellent joke. Bien joué l’ami ! (l’ami, la mie, pun intended :))
