THEY’VE ALREADY EXPERIMENTED with sweet potato fries in the recent past – but now McDonald’s are back with something even more exciting.
Today it’s been revealed that they are testing garlic fries in San Francisco.
And they look VERY garlic-y and delicious
It’s a limited trial to four stores in the San Francisco area, as TIME revealed earlier today.
Needless to say, people are losing it
They have brought them in a little bit on the sly, as they seem to have been available to the four restaurants in question for a few weeks now without any fanfare.
This is definitely an interesting development though
As reported elsewhere tonight, McDonald’s has released a statement about the garlic fries – saying they will be rolled out to nearly 250 restaurants if they go down well:
The new fries are made-to-order in McDonald’s kitchens where restaurant employees toss French fries in stainless steel bowls with a purée mix that includes ingredients, such as chopped Gilroy garlic and olive oil, parmesan cheese, parsley and a pinch of salt.
“Gilroy garlic” is the name of the specific type of garlic grown in a town outside San Francisco – and it’s part of their plan to introduce more locally sourced ingredients to their menu.
