I was asking because when you make hand cut fries you need to soak the starch from them. Usually places do this overnight. If that isn't done the fry will have a different taste and texture as well as become darker as you have to cook them longer.
More than likely though, as other have stated they are being lazy and or cheap and not changing their frying oil.
I wonder how Mc Donald's is a shithole, but their fries are always good.
Part of the reason people like McDonald's is consistency. No matter which MCD you go into the food should be the same.
I'm not sure how they do their fries their though. I bet they have regional factories which make them and ship them out frozen to the different stores.
They have worked with food scientists to engineer perfect fries, they use various chemicals to get the same taste and consistency. They have niggers running the fryers, so they have to make the fries practically cook themselves.
There was once a video on youtube were Grant Imahara (the Asian mythbuster who died) toured a McDonald's facility which made the fries. I don't know if the video is still up, this was long ago.
