The benefits of frying with animal fat are not worth it. The difference in taste is minor, the costs much higher, and the hygiene much more of a concern.

Unless this is going to be a truly luxury place, he should focus on reaching quality with peanut oil.

BTW peanut oil is not dirt cheap, it's one of the better vegetal oils.

Yuck... Visit Belgium for some real Frech fries (they should be called Belgian fries anyway...).

@Oerdin: I have nothing against parmesan, in fact, I love (fresh) parmesan...

I do have an issue with your 'size' though ;-)

hint: to reference a very,very old Asher quote; more girth ;-)

Do you drown them in mayonnaise as well?

It's the best way to eat fries.


Fries with Mayo and black pepper.







and if you listen closely, you can actually hear your arteries hardening while you eat.

Being a Canuckistanian I thought you'd want cheese curds and brown gravy on them.

Look at the sad hipster making a lame poutine joke to show off his unimpressive knowledge of other cultures.

How much have you traveled, Drake? How many countries have you lived in? That's a comparison I'd gladly go up against you with.

Been to Belgium and had the fries, some were good and some were not good. I was comparing McDonald's to other fast food outlets. As far as fastfood goes McD's has the best fries even though they use highly processed pre-frozen stock largely because their twice fried process is so much better then the other fastfood places.

a) Poutine isn't Canadian. It's Qwebekwas.

b) Given that you're a Yankee, your barbarous notions of what makes "good food" are an abomination to anyone from a civilized culture.

I bet you didn't have them from a local "frietkot".

Sometimes, but we use GOOD mayonnaise, not the sweet **** you guys have mistaken to be mayonnaise.
