If they’re still using ‘vegetable’ oil, then NO THANKS.
If it’s not cooked in beef tallow and cottonseed oil, then meh. I’ll just make my own. The day leftists demanded McDonald’s use crappy vegetable oil (which is actually more harmful than Lard or beef fat) was the day I stopped eating at McDonald’s.
Back when McDonald’s fries were done in beef tallow, and they salted them propey, they really were a treat. I try to maintain an extreme low carb diets so for the most part fries are anathema, but I do allow myself a cheat day every 10-14 days.
Is this a add for Wendy’s?
Decades ago they were a lot better. The secret to good French fries is lard or beef tallow.

Again?? 35 years ago they had good fries. They’ve been screwing around with them ever since.
About damn time. Wendy’s used to have great fries, almost as good as MickyDs. Then they changed for the worse. I hate the skin on and don’t even buy them. My kids won’t eat them either.
Yep. Great minds and all. Vegetable oil is crap.
Fast-food frozen fries have been pretty lousy for the last 30 years or so ever since most of the big chains dumped beef tallow as their fry oil in favor of soybean or canola. Now, in my opinion, the only good fast-food fries are the fresh-cut ones from Five Guys (peanut oil) and In-N-Out (sunflower oil, I think).
Peanut oil is pretty good for wok stir-frying.
I don’t know much about Wendy’s or their fries. Rarely eat fast food unless we’re on a long road trip. I like Chick fil A’s waffle fries.
That’s a common POV from everyone I talk to about McDonald’s fries. They’re good right out of the fryer, but go downhill as soon as they start to cool.
What does the Taliban Leadership say?
Fry them in tallow.
The food is fine. They need to stop hiring people who look like gang bangers
Burger King used to be all right a long time ago but now it's typically ghetto.
Fries at Five Guys are great. Their burgers are good too. But seems to be overpriced.
Not being snarky here but what do you mean by “ghetto” as applied to BK.
.
Agree
Mc Don’s really screwed up their fries when they caved to the health Nazis during the Obama regime. My wife use to love them now she would rather have anyone else’s fries instead
