McDonald's French Fries are my secret vice. Now I feel jibbed because I want to try the better beef tallow version! But at the same time, I admire Phil Sokolof's crusade against high fat foods.

@allirico I've been googling for "beef tallow" "Where I can get beef tallow fries" and "How does McDonald fries used to look" since. Trying to eat vicariously through photos.

@allirico Gladwell was looking back at past French fries, but this Planet Money episode looks at future French fries that stay crispy in the food delivery age. Thought you’d enjoy it! https://podyssey.fm/episode/id5218229
