If you go into 5 fast food places you get 5 diferent kinds of French Fries.

Some use mashed potatoes squeezed to look like a fry others use frozen potatoes.

I used to go to the Fire Department Carnivals and they had a bag of potatoes sitting there and a machine that squeezed the potatoes through a screen that sliced them into strips.
Yes folks real fries. Now even they use frozen processed fries. I dont buy them anymore.

Take a good potato ,I dont care if its Idaho or New York, or a spud raised in the back yard. Wash it off ,You dont even have to peel it ,run it through the slicer , throw it in any kind of lard, grease, oil you like as long as you dont get it from the local garage after its run through a Chevy and you have a French Fry. Anything else is just crap.

There is a small locally owned fast food outfit here in Anchorage that still makes fries from spuds - you can watch them prepare and cook the food, they WANT you to see what you are getting.

The fries (and shakes) are the best, they use homemade ice cream for the shakes.

Another reason to spend the summer in Alaska I guess.
