French Fries

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.

Potatoes, deep-fried in sunflower oil or another fatty substance, and a pinch of salt.
It's potatoes that have been cut up into slices and have been placed into a fryer with oil cooking it to a crisp.

A potato is a root vegetable, not a grain.

it is hard to tell but try and shake the salt off of the chips and find out!!

Not very long only 2 days this is true.

The difference is that potato chips have more fat in them, and also are more greasy that tortilla chips. Tortilla chips have salt but they aren't very greasy. Many people prefer potato chips better than tortilla.

They use a scoop to fill the fry container from the basket, so there's no exact number in every order.

No. Potatoes (the made ingredient in french fries) do not have the carcinogenic potential of tobacco. If one was to eat a cigarette, it would result in nausea, vomiting and possibly death due to nicotine poisoning. On the plus side, cigarettes have not been proven to raise cholesterol levels while french fries are known to do so.

All in all, smoking 20 cigarettes per day would most likely be more detrimental to one's health than eating 20 french fries per day.

French fries are made from potato so, in that respect, they are a vegetable.

However, if the question has been asked from a nutritional point of view, potatoes (and therefore french fries) are generally considered to be a starch, rather than a vegetable.

You don't bake french fries. They are deep-fat fried.

None, if eaten with a balanced diet and not to excess. French fries contain a lot of calories and sodium. The calories came from the saturated and trans fat, which can make you gain weight or get obese if consumed too much. High sodium can affect your blood pressure.

The folks at Disney say that almost 9.3 million pounds of french fries are served every year at Disney World. They don't say whether that is their weight before frying or after (it might not make a difference). If I did the math right, that 25,000 pounds a day (9.3 million divided by 365). Wow!

Both really, you have the pallet/digestive system and muscles breaking it down, and the stomach acid finishing it off.

French fries are a foodstuff, as far as I am aware food is renewable, at least it has been to date. There have been local and temporary shortages in various locations.

You can find any sort of food in a metropolitan city like Tokyo and some of the best fries are at First Kitchen - mainly because of the excellent selection of dipping sauces! Now I want some fries from there!

Mos Burger has some excellent burgers and fries as well and another couple of my favorites are Freshness Burger and Lotteria.

French fries have a variety of amusing names, including "freedom fries," which humorously emerged during political tensions. Other playful terms include "potato sticks," "crispy critters," and "spud sticks." In some places, you might hear them called "frenchy fries" or "chip-chips," adding a whimsical twist to this beloved snack. These names often reflect regional slang or playful creativity in describing this popular dish.

Because of the way they're cut, not the way they're cooked or their supposed origin. "Frenching" can have two meanings. The appropriate one here is "to cut into long thin strips".

This girl in my class says that 2 pounds of potatoes are made into french fries. :D
