French Fries

The Fry Review

By Sophie Larsen

Welcome to the The Fry Review, where I review fries from various restaurants based on tastiness, presentation, and whatever else I feel like that day. A little about me: I live with a disease called gastroparesis, which makes it hard to digest many foods. French fries have become a staple of my diet, a food that is usually safe even when my stomach is fighting me. After months of quietly reviewing fries in my head, I decided to share my takes with the internet. Enjoy!
