>> I really want to know what the need was that prompted this devices creation.

What do you mean? This would be very useful for anyone. I often squirt my condiments onto the wrong plate by accident, so this would be great in retrieving them. I've gotten in one too many bar fights trying to dip my french fries into someone else's plate.

Damn, girl. You sure can cook up some french fried potaters. D - Lish.

Ahhh, I thought this was going to be about the french company that actually has the contract to supply the military with their uniforms (or at least did when I was in service). It was common knowledge that these contractors exaggerate cost of manufacture to increase profit margins. All of this of course, at the expense of taxpayers. It wasn't just with the uniforms, it happens with most of the contractors who supply the military. Just like Halliburton; news broke right after the war about how much they were charging for the meals soldiers were given during their deployments. I think it was 20$ per soldier per meal. The meal was almost always hamburgers and french fries. Where's my lobster?

> Just fatter and stupider, right?

I'm going to go cry with a giant box of french fries.

would you compare the McD french fries to deep fried "real food" potatoes? i think its biased comparing cooked food to uncooked food when it comes to molding or decomposition... in a lot of places where refrigeration isn't available cooking is the method of preserving raw food surplus for later use.... please make your own burger and fries using only organic food... cook them properly then keep them in your lunch box for the next 4 years to compare.

and what does inability to decompose/break down in air have anything to do with digestion or human health, don't you eat grains, spices, grains, beans... honey!... all these things won't get "the thing you find at the corner of your shower" when you keep them for too long... are they "not real food" too

don't get me wrong, i agree that McDonalds is "super" unhealthy, but i doubt if it's because of the reasons you mentioned.

Oh, I see…

Well, since some of you seem to have attended the Fred Rogers school of comedy, I’ll try to put it in a more friendly, less sarcastic light:

Although pre-grated cheese is widely popular with the discerning American public(I’m not sure about other countries), I think the general consensus among food bloggers and websites is that pre-grated cheese loses a lot of flavor. Not to mention the fact that buying it whole is more economical, and whole cheeses don’t contain the usual anti-caking ingredients or extra preservatives of most grated varieties.

http://cheaphealthygood.blogspot.com/2009/08/save-money-on-food-buy-it-whole-rather.html

Now, call me old fashioned, but I’m a person who likes to save money. I wouldn’t pay twice the price for gas just to have someone pump it for me. Nor would I pay a home nurse to wash me just because I find it difficult to bathe myself. Even though it can be hard, I still have full use of my arms and brain, so I find I can do pretty well on my own with a washrag or lather sponge.

That said, there are some occasions where I do consider buying pre-grated cheese. For instance, many brands offer the “Mexican Four Cheese Blend” variety. And I find myself thinking, “That’s great! I can’t possibly use four different, whole blocks of cheese on one Mex-a-roni casserole. And if I just overlook the fact that most of these cheeses like ‘Monterey Jack‘, ‘Pepper Jack‘, and ‘Cheddar’ aren’t actually served anywhere in Mexico, I can create quite the tasty impression of a suburban, chipotle abortion in no time. And to make it even easier, Taco Bell now sells mild sauce IN-THE-STORE! Just one aisle over!!!”

Also, I’m willing to accept the idea that some people just have a hard time grating cheese themselves. I started doing it when I was four, to help my mother out in the kitchen, so sometimes I overlook the fact that some people just might not know how. That’s why I’ve included the links below.

Now, these might not get you all the way there. So a few tips of my own are:

1. Try to grate the cheese in one direction only. Against the teeth. This will prevent the unnecessary action of sliding the cheese up the grater the wrong way.

2. Always wash the grater immediately. Unlike mayonnaise, Velveeta and French-fry grease, cheese will start to harden-up after a short period of time and become difficult to wash off.

Give it a shot. With a little hard work you’ll be grating cheese in no time flat. I don’t know about you, but I’ll be saving the extra money to go see the American version of “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” at the IMAX.

when will the masses in the US realize who their government really works for
i mean, they aren't even really trying to hide it anymore
and still people are more concerned about celebrity gossip

the rest of the world hates the US because of their apathy/lack of knowledge about their countries foreign policy, and the suffering it causes around the world

they also pity you because you seem to be too apathetic/stupid to see that foreign policy being turned towards 98% of your population

and yet you still believe you are the shining example for the rest of the world

France exercises more democracy than the US, should chose French Fries over the Freedom Fries I guess

@dystopianfuturetoday. I agree with you. I know the politicized title may turn some off, and I can understand. I do actually blame the parents, as well. But, it certainly is a public school fail because the whole purpose of school is to teach the basics, and identifying vegetables is pretty base.

We do need healthier options for school kids. If we're paying for it, then a balanced diet should consist of more than just pizza and french fries. But these failures are from the USDA guidelines that say pizza and french fries qualifies as proper servings of protein, bread and vegetables. You want someone to blame? Blame the government for that!

This so-called doctor is obviously a low-life.

Of course, the cons love this firebrand "I'll do whatever the hell I want! I'm a Republican!" attitude, until that attitude is mirror-imaged in their direction, then it's unfair. It's "un-American."

It's always you cons doing this shit.

It's always you bastards who throw these kinds of tantrums when everything doesn't go your way.

This is the same mentality as changing "French Fries" to "Freedom Fries" or telling people not to park in your parking lot if they're Democrats.

You fuckers make life impossible here.

As baffled as I am by people spending so much money on bottled water, I think it is ignorance, not stupidity that has people paying money for bottled tap water. The same forces that have convinced people to put carbonated sugar water, big macs or other garbage in their bodies for over a generation. Advertising has kids begging their parents for sugar coated pork puffs in the cereal isle. There are ads on all the time for "beverages" like Beep (a drink loaded with sugar and canola oil) for breakfast. People have been being told to eat garbage by television, and other advertising mediums for years, and they listened.

I think people make bad decisions like paying for bottle water regularly and eating unhealthy foods not because they are too stupid to grasp the idea of tap water or healthy food, but because no one has explained the alternative to them. During his address to TED, I was shocked when Jamie Oliver showed that an elementary school class could not identify a potato.

The kids in that classroom aren't stupid. What's stupid is an education curriculum that allows french fries to be placed in a food group in their school's cafeteria.

How sad. It's nothing short of astounding stupidity amongst the populace that bottled water has become such an epidemic.

I can only do pizza... french fries... pizza... french fries... pizza...
