The French started the modern fashion for picnics when they opened their royal parks to the public after the revolution of 1789. Did you know some picnics are a potluck? An entertainment at which each person contributed some dish to a common table for all to share. When the picnic is not also a cookout, the food eaten is rarely hot, instead taking the form of deli sandwiches, finger food, fresh fruit, salad, cold meats and accompanied by chilled wine or champagne or soft drinks. {alertSuccess}
