McDonald's And Wendy's Put Too Much Salt On Their French Fries - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

isiahthomas · 10-10-2015, 03:01 PM

I'm not eating McDonald's and Wendy's French fries anymore because they put way too much salt on them. I went to McDonald's yesterday for lunch and I got some French fries with chicken nuggets and I noticed that there was too much salt on the fries. So I didn't eat most of them and I threw them away. The McDonald's and Wendy's employees don't give a damn about their customers getting high cholesterol and other health issues from eating so much salt on their fries. The employees could care less about people's health and they need to start caring because the customers need to demand to them to stop putting so much salt on the French fries. I went to Applebee's restaurant a few weeks ago and I noticed that when I had a bacon cheeseburger with French fries that the French fries didn't have a lot of salt. As a matter of fact, I didn't taste any salt on the fries and I liked that. I did put some ketchup on them. So if I want some French fries, i'll go to Applebee's to get some.

You can request no-salt fries and add it yourself.

Damn those unhealthy fast food restaurants.

It's not really the employees fault!! They are trained to make the food a certain way, and the amount of salt is probably what they are told to put on them!

Bonus: You'll know you are getting a fresh batch of fries.

Plus, if you're really worried about health, probably shouldn't be going to fast food joints. Nothing wrong with it in moderation of course, but still.

All that salt is what makes them taste so good. I try to limit myself to 1 small fry a week since it's not such a healthy choice. At home I use No Salt seasoning.

How is that? Is it good? Cause I need to watch my salt intake too, but I would miss the taste! This No Salt would be a good option for me!

I love salty fries.

I feel McDonald's has okay fries, but Wendy's...they have the skin-on fries and it has sea salt which is better for you than regular salt.

I'll add ketchup to my fries if needed anymore...I have my fries with salt and pepper.

i highly recommend arby's curly fries and five guys fries just get little fires they gave you bunches of fries if you get regular fires i do agree that mcdonald's buts too much salte on their fires i stopped eating at mcdonalds months ago their food tastes like crap!!! their hamburgers taste like rubber i can't get the quarter pounded any more last time i got big mac it tasted old & stale!!

Those salt substitutes(at least the ones that I've tried) leave a terrible after taste. As do most artificial sweeteners. Ick!

I find Equal to be a pretty good sugar substitute, but all the others are

Equal is pretty good. But I prefer Splenda.

When I cook with it, I really can't tell the difference. But adding it on top of my fries I can tell a slight difference in the taste. You'd just have to try it and see if you like it.
