There’s an extensive process to get all of the french fries to look the same, and to make it so that people know a McDonald’s fry when they see one. It’s all in the ingredients, which is the reason that all of the fries are the exact same shade of yellow.
Even though they use a variety of potatoes, they manage to make them look uniform by dipping them in sugar and sodium acid pyrophosphate in order to ensure that they cook evenly.
Curly Fries Are Out Of The Question
One of the reasons that people can easily spot a McDonald’s fry is because they all look the same, and they’re always straight. In contrast, while other restaurants may have options for different kinds of fries such as thick-cut, waffle fries, and sweet potato fries, that is not the case at McDonald’s.
It’s unlikely that these kinds of varieties will ever be found on the menu because they don’t have any reason to introduce anything new when it comes to fries.
Flash Freeze To The Rescue
Because the fries are cut in a factory, they have to be transported to all the different locations before they can be cooked and served to customers. The way they do this is by flash freezing the cut potatoes.
Once they arrive at the restaurant, they are then tossed into the fryer to be prepared and sold to hungry customers. While some people are disappointed that the fries are frozen, many more aren’t bothered by it.
