Well, probably all for the best.
French fries, like so many fried foods, have a laxative effect.
And there's no toilet paper to be had in the entire country.

Venezuela is not just enjoying a socialist economy, with a few hours of power and water a day and ibuprofen being a luxury, but they are probably the most incompetent socialists at that. Even by dysfunctional commie standards, Venezuela is messed up.

A few in that crowd look like they should skip the fries, for awhile.

Wait a minute. No one ever thought about growing a few potatoes or their collectivist farms down there in Vinnyzuela?

a man wearing an "employee of the month" cap braved the dinner rush Monday, patiently explaining to patron after patron that instead of French fries You couldn't pay me enough to patiently explain to that mob, over and over, why they weren't getting fries.

No one ever thought about growing a few potatoes or their collectivist farms down there in Vinnyzuela? Potatoes were first cultivated probably in Peru (in very small mountainside fields), but the varieties normally made into french fries would find the climate and open terrain more suitable in parts of Argentina and Chile. Also, large-scale french fry manufacturing plants (like we have here in eastern WA) are very expensive.
