The Worst French Fries in America

2-28-2010 @10:17AM laceyma said... You said it Vince!!!! I try not to eat fast food as much as I used to but when I do, McD's is right next to BK. Small McD fry and Whopper Jr. Sometimes I go all out and get a classic chicken! Whoa!! I rarely drink soda anymore. I usually get the iced Joe, way better than the overpriced McCaffe. And Wendys fries are nasty too. I love Checkers fries. I hate Checkers staff, I have yet to find a Checkers employee that doesn't have a Walmart employee attitude. Same company???LOL! Ok, off subject, I know. McD's could stay open just from selling fries I think!!

had them they were pretty nasty and soggy, the burgers
are sloppy, too.

It's still there, that first one, on hallowed ground. When you entered there in 1960 you were in another world, like hamburger heaven. Everything was stainless. They actually made shakes from scratch with real ice cream & fresh milk. And the burgers were made from real meat, not a patty. Chemical preservatives, artificial colors, artificial flavors hadn't been invented yet. I still make food like this, but I'm too busy to open a "real" hamburger chain.Someday, you might be able to eat like this again. ...Alfred-

soybean something or another taste...but you know i'm only 47yrs old and when I was younger
like 14yrs old, mcdonalds was the bomb....I mean, I had their slogan down pat, just in case they called my number you'd win big time money...anybody remember that? thee ole, two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese,pickles, onions on a sesame bun...yea..and that burger was downright delicious.....so throughout the years I have no ideal what they've done to their burgers but I can just smell them and get nauseated....I hate Mcdonalds food now....and alot has to do with the food is just bad tasting now, its all about slinging those burgers out hundreds at a time, and they do sling....ever got a mcdonalds burger, opened it up and it was a complete mess and I always got the kid with the acne and dirty fingernails, who had absolutely no ideal what he was doing, bless his heart...I mean,,,I can't handle mcdonalds anymore....but there was a time when they were good, but BK has them beat by all means Vince.

2-28-2010 @3:15PM Georgia Jane said... Comparing "large" sizes to each other isn't fair at all. Large sizes at some fast food joints weigh much more than at other places. But comparing a small McDonald's fry to anyone's large is downright egregious. That sounds like McDonald's doing a little tricky promotion for themselves, and I see right through that.

For anyone who cares to google information to find the truth, here is the REAL story.

Arby's small curly fry 128 grams, 410 calories, 3.20 calories per gram
Arby's medium curly fry 170 grams 540 calories, 3.18 calories per gram
Arby's large curly fry 201 grams, 640 calories, 3.18 calories per gram

McDonald's small fry, 71 grams, 230 calories, 3.24 calories per gram
McDoinald's medium fry, 117 grams, 380 calories, 3.25 calories per gram
McDonald's large fry, 154 grams, 500 calories, 3.25 calories per gram

Five Guys "regular" fries, 244 grams, 620 calories, 2.54 calories per gram

The above comparison shows that this article so full of errors, you cannot believe what you read, you have to do the research for yourself to know the truth. Not only are McDonald's fries more caloric gram-for-gram than Arby's, but they are also ripping off the consumer in their sizing, having smaller weights for each of the small, medium and large designations. Five Guys has been harmed by this article, as their fries prove to actually have the lowest caloric content gram-for-gram. If I were them I would sue whoever put this article out.

2-28-2010 @8:32AM anonymous said... So bitter and defensive! Like a big baby sitting in a mud puddle eating a bug - no one's gonna tell ME what to eat or not eat! Well, go for it, pal! Stuff yourself real good. Maybe that's all ya got in life.

2-28-2010 @8:23AM lard ass said... I'm with you there, comrade! There really is nothin more American than swilling at one of the many troughs offered up at Exit 86 throughout the nation. I hate it that they put the salad bars in the way of the dessert counters in so many of those establishments. Its bad enough that I can't light up after a satisfying meal at most of the dumps we dine at. I make up for that in the car ride back home...the kids don't mind. I used to be proud of the freedoms I helped protect for this country. Those freedoms are sacred....and what could be more sacred than breaking breading? I want my country, and my spoon, back!!

2-28-2010 @12:09PM cotton said... Uncle Richie take your head out and come up for air. What Larry says is true. The Govt. has created a "buffer zone" between we the people and every industry in American. And it is not for "our own good" this has been done. Its for control of our lives and if you do not see that then you are so under their spell that you actually think you have free choice. You think YOU raise your children? Just try spanking your child. You think YOU have a say in how your child is educated? You'd better check with the teachers union because you do not sir. The list goes on and on. All to say Govt. protection to the point we have it today is NOT freedom. When your free yoiu have the option of doing it your way as long as it does not infringe on anothers rights. Your as free as a caged parrot.
