Pizza yes, but I've never seen a sandwich eaten by knife and fork during the many times I've been to France...

Are you talking about a baguette sandwich or the ones that are made on thin slices of bread? I could see the latter being eaten this way but not the former.


As for Pizza... the Pizza in France is fairly different from what we eat here in North America. It is, generally speaking, thinner crust and wetter. Picking it up with your hands is just.... messy (especially when you put an egg on it as the French seem to do with everything).
