Seriously, come on! Those pictures look gross...which if your intention is to discourage people from eating french fries then you can proudly say '''mission accomplished'''.  Personally, I think we should have at least one decent picture just to balance the other bad ones.  [[User:Mike Mayors|Mike Mayors]] [[User talk:Mike Mayors|(Talk)]] 00:43, 14 June 2007 (CDT)

==Fries and chips are different==
I would like to dispute the implication that fries and chips are the same thing. Fries ''are'' sold in the UK, usually in places like McDonald's. Also, fries are thinner than chips. In any chip ship (a place to buy [[fish and chips]]) you will find thicker chips which will have been fried; whereas chips may be fried or grilled.

Fries and chips are different

I would like to dispute the implication that fries and chips are the same thing. Fries are sold in the UK, usually in places like McDonald's. Also, fries are thinner than chips. In any chip ship (a place to buy fish and chips) you will find thicker chips which will have been fried; whereas chips may be fried or grilled. John Stephenson 04:21, 14 June 2007 (CDT)
