Can you eat through a small order of french fries without them getting cold?


Half of the fries are looking at me, all cold.
How fast does the restaurant expect me to eat them?

      Lol, I never thought about it before reading your post, but I guess that's psychologically why I always eat all of the French fries first and then start on the rest of the food. You're onto something here!

    Thanks, Randy D!
    :)
    I'm glad it's not just my imagination.

      If you wish to analyze me further, please do so. No one has ever been able to figure out what makes me tick.

    The problem may lie in the fact that the fries are too skinny. All these fast food joints have skinny fries for fast cooking. You need thick chunky type fries, they lose heat slowly, therefore you end up burning your mouth. They also taste better, like potatoes.

    Good point! Thanks, bhwilson!
    And you're right --  the fires I had were skinny.

    No, but I can usually eat them before they are stone cold.

    I even failed at that.

    Well, maybe they weren't completely cold.

    The chippies in Scotland never give you a small order. And they're not skinny either.

    And I assume they stay hot!

    They need to invent a french-fry warmer.  Maybe you could go on Shark Tank with this idea to sell to restaurants.

    There we go! Great idea!
    And with my winning ways and delightful humor, they'd want me to be the spokesperson to sell the warmers directly to the public and then I'd find my dream man (he was on the film crew for the TV commercial) and I'd be in a wonderful relationship - -- see how crazy my imagination flies?
    Ha!

    I can eat a small order of fries in two bites. But I always get the large order so they hold the heat.
