I know how disastrously unhealthy french fries are, I also know how delicious and addictive they are. So I’ve learned to just not eat any at all. Because it’s impossible to eat just one. or six.
Just go for the really chunky Belgium “pommes frittes” (something which the Dutch call “patates”) to follow the letter of the rule but not quite the spirit of it.
Also, they’re amazing!
Edit: turns out the Dutch call them “patate” (also friet and frieten) which I incorrectly pluralized in the French way because I also speak French so it just sounded wrong to me in the singular form and I assumed I recalled it wrong. Thanks to all that corrected me and explained it.
I was under the impression that the plural of that word in Dutch was “patates” since it’s originally a French word so the plural is done the French way rather than the Germanic-way (which would yield the word “pataten”).
That would be patatten. The Dutch call fries friet or patat (always singular), we (Flemish) call them frieten (plural). The Walloon probably call them frites?
That’s how were called in Dutch the delicious chunky, soft french fries that came with a big serving ot mayonaise, which I used to buy back whem I was living in A’dam.
Maybe I incorrectly pluralised it from “patate” or we’re both thinking of different kinds of french fries?!
Serving sizes are always a fucking joke.
Reminder: Pam Cooking Spray is zero calorie, zero fat, and zero carb
Because there are 746 Servings in a single can of Pam. A serving size of 1/4 a second - which is small enough I’m not sure most people could do it. Just enough to round down from a tiny fraction to zero.
Not a great example. Cooking spray is for making a pan or cover non-stick. You ingest very little of it.
You’ve obviously not spent enough time around gym bros. I have on multiple occasions overheard conversations about using it as a butter substitute because, "…it has no calories. "

You should only eat 6 fries per serving, Harvard professor says. bit.ly/2FVZq4M

Shut the fuck up, nerd
