You've never struggled with your weight, have you?

Crispy, creamy, and rich are all markers for high-fat
foods.

Larger fries have about 14 grams of fat per 10 fries.
That's quite a bit, which is why I eat fries only a
few times a year. I generally eat them simply salted,
so I can enjoy the fried potato-y goodness unencumbered
by other flavors.
