Because they don’t like fast food.
The joke is a play on words involving cultural cuisine and the concept of “fast food.” It starts with a question about why French people eat snails, a delicacy known as escargot in French cuisine. The punchline, “Because they don’t like fast food,” humorously connects the literal speed of snails, which are slow-moving creatures, with the term “fast food,” which typically refers to quickly prepared, expedient meals often associated with American fast food chains.
Escargot is their way of saying, “Let’s take things slow.”
Because catching any other food would be too much work.
