I was in France for a wedding recently and I saw traiteur on the side of one of the vans pulled up. I remarked to the staff that in Louisiana French, traiteur/traiteuse means folk healer, and they told me it was just the caterers.

Traiteur does mean caterer in France, but the way the word is constructed also implies “someone who treats”, to treat is traiter and traitement is treatment, so it’s weird that only traiteur lost that meaning.
