If you are required to pay Francs - as an entry fee, to pay interest, or to buy a building - you must use Francs. You can never convert any kind of food to Francs. If you don't have the Francs required for the first two, you must take a loan; for the third, you don't get to buy the building.
Actually, this isn't quite right either: you may not take loans when short on the entry fee.
Agreed. There are only two times that loans can be taken: when you can't afford to pay the interest on a previous loan or when you can't afford the required food at the end of a round. This is made explicitly clear on p10, again with sidebar examples reinforcing what is said.
