    Are their fries vegetarian, or are their potatoes prepared with beef residues like McDonald's fries?

    And they probably still have too many carbs and probably too many chemicals.

    I doubt enough people will care to affect their bottom line much.

    This is the problem. Instead of cutting out unhealthy versions of food like products...they try to make it healthier by altering it with chemicals. Stop eating low fat, and sugar free versions of sh**. It's still sh**.

    Fries are not healthy. Want to eat potatoes? Bake them.

    Want to eat potatoes, bake them? That is funny.....

    The cooking process has minimal impact.... if you want to be healthy eat very limited amounts of potatoes.

    Three fast-food places that probably should have gone belly-up by now: Burger King, Wendy's and Sonic

    All three are among the shoddiest, least professional, crappiest places to buy food ever.

    And Jack in the Box is not far behind..

    It took 10 years of innovation to come up with crinkly fries? :confused:

    This reminds me of a cheer at Aeros games.

    After they were on a power play...the other team would get back to full strength..and the announcer would say: "The Admirals return to full strength" to let you know the penalty time was over.

    And the crowd would respond: "And they still suck!!!"

    That's what BK's new french fries remind me of.
