Do you 'really' want fries with that ?

"Do you want fries with that?"

Ever heard that phrase before?
I'm sure you have.
And probably in popular burger joints around the world.

One such burger joint, amongst the most popular in the world, has been going through something of a downsize in recent times. Sometime back there was a case posed against it for using beef in french fries which caused a lot of issues with the Indian community as beef is 'the forbidden' meat amongst Hindus. Hindus were pissed. And the joint was was sued.

"They deceived the public about beef flavorings in their "vegetarian fries." They got caught. They were sued. They settled in court."

The end result being :

"They made no changes in their fries, which are still beef-flavoring saturated. Sure, the oil is vegetable. But make no mistake about it. There is meat in those luscious Golden Arches french fries."

Well, I'm not too much on the 'no beef' scene...to each his own, I suppose.
But my experience with the same burger joint in Malaysia's Genting Highlands definitely shook my faith in the one of the world's most popular eating joints and especially in their "luscious Golden Arches french fries."

Here's what I saw :

So people...please check your fries before putting them in your mouth.
There may be more going in there.
