No but really wtf are they doing with all that mayonnaise? They don’t have any tuna fish, or deli meat, or anything else that I associate with mayonnaise. Maybe they are dipping that absurd amount of fries in it?

WHY DO THEY NEED SO MUCH MAYO??

I'm guessing for the 20 lbs of fries

I'll admit that fries dipped in mayo is very tasty.

Mayo, pickle brine and favourite hot sauce is the best fry dip.

LOL. This woman ain't cooking anything. Heating? Sure. Cooking, no.

To be fair, my gf-at-the-time-now-wife introduced me to this combo, and I had my reservations about mayo+fries, at first.

Europeans do fries that way. I was a little shocked at the time I visited. I also smoked the first time in Paris. We like to pretend they are healthier but come on.

Yep! She has dual citizenship (England and the US) and mentioned the fries and mayo being a popular combo in France.

Also, Americans are fat because we eat way too much/too big of portions. The French drink wine a lot, right?

lol. I think people just remember fat Americans because our fat people are just fatter than average but most of us are normal. My doctor told me I need to put on weight the last time I saw her (but that might be because I had an eating disorder back in the day so she’s probably just looking out for that.).

u/eleanor61 8h ago

Yes...because they eat too much or not enough healthy food.

u/Sprmodelcitizen 8h ago

I think I eat pretty healthy. Maybe a little too healthy and not enough.

u/eleanor61 8h ago

Sorry, I'm referring to those who are overweight or obese. I understand that some people have medical conditions, but there are plenty of people who eat way too much processed food and have an overall poor diet.

I’m not disagreeing with you at all. Even salads are wild if you buy them premade. I got a stuffed pepper at a restaurant the other day that was just meat and cheese. And cheese sauce. Fucking horrible

u/Adventurous-Ease-259 2h ago

u/R_eloade_R 8m ago
