If that is true, then it have to be the oil and possibly a smaller size in cross section. What they have today is crap.

From 2002: http://www.cbsnews.com/news/mcdonalds-settles-beef-over-fries/

It's been a while, but this is why they taste like crap these days. Plus, either the worker puts too much salt on them (hard to do, but it's possible), or not enough.

Seems typical of PC pandering companies.

There is simply no comparison of what they once put out with what they put out today. None.

Uh oh, Code Words.

Liberals are always on the lookout for Code Words.

I guess the Minions Toys sad things like Teens and Thugs.

Here's a tour of the factory so you can see for yourself.

Man, I detest fornicating perpetrators of falsehood.

“Inside the building, a maze of red conveyer belts crisscrosses in and out of machines that wash, sort, peel, slice, blanch, blow-dry, fry, and flash-freeze potatoes.”

You’re the one who made the insulting inference, it’s up to you to either prove your allegation or get off your high horse.

Free speech also includes consequences for obvious falsehoods, which you appear to be good at avoiding by using the type of deflection and weaseling typical of a certain leading democrat..

You inferred the meat has wood fiber, you inferred the fries have wood fiber, and you get all “I didn’t say that” when called on it.

Others have also questioned your statements, and I see you have been equally obtuse with them.

So, when did you stop beating your wife?

Prove it legally. That’s apparently the way MY country works now. Heck, even the Constitution doesn’t matter any more. Frankly, your interpretation means nothing now unless you can bring a case up before a liberal court for my injuring you sensibilities (all the rage nowadays, I hear)

Seems to me you are prone to hysteria and false interpretation.

BTW. Re-consult a dictionary. “Obtuse” wouldn’t be the word I think you were going for. Just guessing but a more appropriate word might have been “evasive,” or perhaps “misleading.”

Our cub scout troop took a tour of the McDonald’s back in the med-60’s. I remember the machine they used to peel the potatoes, it was the size of one of those old extractors you’d see in laundromats that would spin most of the water from the just-washed clothes. The peeler didn’t spin that fast but it had holes punched into the inside surface of the drum that abraded the skin off the potatoes. They even fed us lunch after the tour! :)

That is the key point most people are missing, but you understand: You cannot travel home with these fries from anywhere.

They ALL taste like crap once they drop below the threshold where they are just barely too hot to comfortably pick up with your finger.

You must eat them immediately, or they are all disgusting, be it McDonalds, Five Guys or Burger King.

How to peel potatoes with a hand-held drill and a toilet brush!

It goes without saying you have to buy a NEW and UNUSED toilet brush to do this!

Um, no.

Obtuse is EXACTLY what your replies are, to all respondents responding to your wisdom.

wikidictionary OBTUSE Well, it is the Wikidictionary, but it's the best I could do after finishing WORK and seeing snarkiness.

Evasive was an option, but your lack of reasoning was why I said what I did. You wanna play snark, you're in the right room, princess.
