[Sca-cooks] Larousse gastronomique?

[Gorgeous Muiredach]

I remember seeing on this list a while back some rather strong dislike
expressed about the Larousse Gastronomique.  Now that I have finally put my
hands on mine again, after 5 years in storage (the book, not me!), I'd be
interested to know why you believe it is not such a good reference
book.  Also, do your objections hold true for the French version as well as
the English one?
Thx
