French Fry Diary 607: No More Satisfries


This has not been a good week for the favorite fried food. First I'm losing one of my favorite restaurants, Little Shanty, and now Burger King has announced they are discontinuing their Satisfries.

The Satisfries were a lower calorie alternative to the normally crappy and constantly changing regular fries at Burger King. These crinkle cuts were awesome when hot and even reheated, and quite frankly, a reason to actually go to Burger King rather than someplace else. After less than a year on the menu, BK has decided to pull the plug on these great fries because sales were apparently less than 'satisfrying.'

This coincides with Burger King's reintroduction of their Chicken Fries. BK claims they are back by popular demand and further says, "Get yours before they're gone!" perhaps implying that nothing on the BK menu is safe or permanent.

Chicken fries, meh, I'd rather have Satisfries. At least Burger King is consistent in their bad calls.

Wise Fries from McCain


Following the new trend set by Burger King with their Satisfries, McCain, one of the world's biggest frozen French fries manufacturers, has announced Wise Fries, low fat battered fries.

These fries, in a unique new crinkle cut design , will be a healthier choice for folks who like to bake their own fries at home.

As soon as they are available, I will be posting my own review here on French Fry Diary. If you get to them first, be sure to let me know what you think!

Free Satisfries!


This weekend, Burger King's Satisfries are free. That's right, at Burger King this weekend, October 12th and 13th, the value-sized order of Satisfries, usually going for $1.29, will be free. Details are here.

If you've been thinking of giving these new low-fat, low-calorie fries a try, this is your chance.

I happen to like them, as you can see in my review here. Let me know what you think!

Daym Drops on Satisfries


Here's my brother from another mother, Daym Drops, with his thoughts on Burger King's new Satisfries...



Yeah, what he said.
