What is a good trivia question about French food that I can ask high school students?

Next week is French Week at my school and every morning we’ll be asking a question on the announcements. I need to present a question about French Food. Any ideas?

What does the term “haute cuisine” mean, and who created it? In the 19th century, master chef Marie-Antoine CarĂªme created the term haute cuisine (high cooking) for the best French cooking.

This same person also invented the toque (the high white hat that is part of the chef’s uniform).

Here’s a pretty good, basic French cuisine site:
