The Trouble with Fries The introduction explains how Ray Kroc loves making shakes, and finds out there are people who have a hamburger stand and it is basically the first 'fast food' type of thing. He loves it so much, especially the fries, he buys it from the two men, who just happen to be the McDonald brothers. Ray Kroc bought it from the brothers and that is how McDonald's came about. He was obsessed with fries. He said it was an art that he mastered into a science, but the fact is, fast food is killing us. The article moves on saying to make it better for us they should cook the french fries in a less dangerous oil, they even give an example of one, but do you really think these fast food chains are going to change the way their fries are cooked. Almost everyone enjoys them, whether from McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, etc! Too many people like them for them to change the way they make them. They said the only solution is to get another Ray Kroc who would try to make a health conscience fast food chain, which could happen, but I think most people would still go to the more popular fast food places, even though they aren't healthy, but I would love to try a healthy fast food burger and fries, but it probably won't even be created!
