Burger King Beefs Up Its Fries

Since the great fry-switch disaster of 1997, when Burger King last changed its fry recipe, I (and many others) have been awaiting a fry revamp from the King. At last, it seems that day has come.

Currently only available in the Chicago-area markets, the new BK french fries are reported to be larger, thicker and no longer coated. Preliminary comparisons have been drawn to the old (pre-sea salt) Wendy’s fries.

Anyone who has tried these fries, please feel free to comment and share the wealth! Are they an improvement on the BK fries of yore?
