COCK-A-DOODLE-DO

Grown in France
It's strawberry season and French growers proudly distinguish themselves from their Spanish competitors with some cocky packaging. The basic declaration crows that these strawberries were grown in France.

Vocabulary
cocorico:  cock-a-doodle-do; crowing
un emballage:  wrapping, packaging
sous emballage cellophane: cellophane-wrapped
s'emballer: to get excited about something, to go overboard on things

Something else to crow about . . .
