An article in the Times Online is about a lesser-known part of France - the Franche-Conté and indeed whilst I consider myself to be well-travelled in France I have only been through the area once or twice in 30 years.
"It really is a bit like entering a richly endowed household via the pantry, because Franche-Comté, tucked beside the Swiss border beneath Alsace and north of the Alps, is a storehouse full of delectable foodstuffs. It is the source of France’s best-seller among appellation controlée cheeses, Comté, and of the unctuously superb winter and Christmas speciality, Mont d’Or, and it also provides much of France’s smoked hams and sausages – while at the same time keeping to itself a few curious regional specialities that you will not find anywhere else."
