For a massive corporate fast-food franchise, McDonalds does have pretty good fries. Can't make up for their burgers. Between a McBurger and what I can find under a nice, big, flat rock... I'll take the rock any day. Hey, I'm a skunk! :-D Whaddaya expect?

For good fries I'll go with local restaurants or small franchises. Stuffy's Subs make a great batch o' taters, big serving, so hot you can burn your paws if not careful, delicious as part of a cheesesteak lunch special. Several of our local barbecue joints have great fries too (and onion rings, mmmmm).

I've tried making my own and learned that it's beyond my modest cooking abilities.

mcdonald's "fries" are shit, follow Hesten Blumethal's recepie for chips - gotta cook them three times to get them right.

But still - GURU :swoon:

Good thinking. McDo seems to put artificial flavouring in everything, fries included, and in varying amounts: sometimes their fries taste like Lays instead of fried taters...

Don't think I've been to a Mickey Dee's in -- what, maybe eight, ten years. I do eat junk food, just not burgers.

Some skunks will raise their tail for anything.

For my sins I spent some time working for Ronald. I was amazed to see the fries arriving in powder form. Yes thats right POWDER!

Like some kind of grainier version of Smash potato, it arrives in big tubs. The process is then to add water, then freeze in blocks. Finally, shove the icy mess through a cutter to produce the mac fries. Next time you are in there, just check out your hollow powder chips, and realise that it's months since they have resembled any kind of root vegetable.

Wow. =o.O= I think they arrive pre-shaped into sticks here in the US, but can't say I've seen for myself. IIRC I have seen workers opening and dumping big sacks labelled "fries," but I might be mistaken.

cpt: Can't spray without raising it.

N.B.: NEVER ask a five-foot eight-inch tall skunk "Hey, can you give me a lift?"

I'm lovin' it
