Brits Attack France

Asked to name the world's "most unfriendly nation," 46% of the 6,000 Brits surveyed chose their neighbor, France.

The French also were rated most ungenerous" and "most boring."

Germany ranked second in all three categories, while Italy won for "best cuisine" and "most cultured."

As for the U.S., Brits say we're the "most unstylish" and have the "worst food"—ironic considering Britain's onetime reputation for dull cuisine.
