There doesn't seem to be any statistics on that. In France, no region has a particular reputation for eating snails. Burgondy was a region of production and may have been an important consuming region as well, but in fact there isn't any evidence to support that idea.

Nobody, snails are a common dish in many countries, not just France. In Spain, it is one of the tapas dishes. In Italy, it was eaten during the meatless days. In France, large Burgundy snails are stuffed with a cold garlic and parsley butter. I guess this particular stuffing is how they got known as a French specialty. Smaller varieties of snails are also used in different places, with a tomato sauce. Whatever you do, never use canned snails, these are truly disgusting.
