apple fries?

"Now, Tommy, HONESTLY, you can't have that burger dripping in grease unless you eat your APPLE FRIES."

We can't just cut up an apple for you at home, no no no no no. It needs to look like fries. And it needs to have fast food packaging. Or else, it's just not as good.

So like... how are they going to keep this ingenious idea from turning brown without adding tonnes of gross chemicals to it? And who gets apples with fast food, anyway?

I know it's a step in the right direction, but it reminds me of the dude we've all be stuck behind ordering his 3 cheeseburgers, 2 fries, and 15 apple pies. With a diet Coke.
