    Sometimes they just take the salted fries, throw them back in the fryer for a few seconds to “wash away the salt” and then give them to you. Now you get slightly older, extra oily fries instead.

      This is the same reason I don’t get ice at restaurants. I’ve worked in too many kitchens that had mold in their ice machines.

          The customer would tell right away.

          Not salt, but that goes against every food handling process, and if you did that once, management would have been informed by the customer.

          Sure, some edgy teenagers probably do it once or twice, but they’re not gonna have a job much past that day. There’s a bunch of other “legal” stuff to do, that’s gonna bother them even more.

            You sound like you’ve never worked fast food in a dying restaurant. I guarantee the things that happen in some of those places would shock you.

              lol, there’s a fucking reason they’re dying.

              You’re deep frying salted fries thinking they won’t notice. Why do you think no one wants to go back…?

              If the owner lets that happen, of course the place is going to die and close, that’s why they don’t last. Places that DON’T operate like edgy teens, stay open and do it other ways.

              It’s almost like not following food safe procedures is gonna fuck you over…
