Why do french fries taste bad after they've been in the fridge?

French fries become soggy fairly quickly, both from internal moisture and moisture from the air. The outer (fried) layer loses its texture. As long as there is some moisture, bacteria and spores will colonize the outside but, depending on the humidity level, the french fries may dry out before they can grow. (Salt and oil don't make a very good growth medium for bacteria and fungi.) Continued exposure to air will cause the oil to oxidize and smell rancid; salt seems to hasten that process.
