What's happened to McDonald's fries?

    The onion rings do blow, but that tiger sauce is the greatest condiment since Frank's Red Hot.

    Hell, I'll go so far as to say it's one of - if not the - premier fast food chains.

    I fell in love with that place a few years when I spent an entire summer in Alabama.

    I do love the pull on A&W fries. Almost forgot them.

    That's bull shit, because if you spend your whole life not eating meat you shouldn't order fries that were cooked in meat grease. It's not like the Hindu's are a culture that like to stir up trouble. They just don't want to eat meat. They aren't like the crazy PETA folk, who will curse you for eating a cheeseburger, Hindu's don't care if you eat meat they just don't want it.

    And I'm sure someone will say "don't go to McDonald's then," but there are other options. Salads, desserts, and FRIES and since McDonald's are so conveniently located on every corner, it is no wonder they still eat there.

    I asumed that they decided to make the fries healty and that ruined them.

    I was more referring to McDonald's getting rid of the meat flavoring and why they did it. I don't give a damn about people's choices.

    This has always boggled my mind as well. That shit is just gross, even by fast food standards.

    I've eaten at White Castle sober once...on a dare on my last day at a job. A buddy of mine ate there every day and mocked me for not eating that swill. He bet me I wouldn't eat one of those mini-burgers. Easiest bet I ever won.

    1a. Chick-Fil-A waffle fries.
    1b. Arby's curly fries. (Seriously, two pages and no mention of Arby's? Slippping, y'all. ::))
    The two are totally different, so it depends on which you have a craving for that night.

    2. Any place on the Atlantic Shore that serves classic boardwalk fries.

    3. Checker's/Rally's (basically, the same style as Arby's.)

    4. In-N-Out animal-style fries.

    Animal style?

    (You can get your fries smothered in the grilled onions, extra spread and cheese, the same way they cook the burgers.)
