You have no choice, they shake a mixture of salt and sugar over the fries
I've never heard or tasted that, but then, I've never given it much thought.

So where is your source?

Are you sure about that?
Salt certainly.
I'd expect a small amount of dextrose to be added at the chip factory to standardise seasonal and varietal colour, but see no benefit in adding sugar (sucrose or dextrose) after frying in store.

Is it true that there is more potato starch in thier milk shakes than the fries???

Given the amount of crap added to food generally, I doubt the chip thing is anything major in the great scheme of things, unless you practically live on them.

Ok, so I can see the logic behind it given the explanation. I can also see the fault in it too, but I doubt having the occasional sugar browned chips is really going to cause many problems unless you are diabetic or sommat.
