Wouldn't you know it, the reason I painstakingly avoid the Golden Arches once
breakfast is over is that I dearly love their fries.  Unfortunately, being
diabetic, I am not allowed to eat potatoes ... or bread ... or fruit ... or much
of anything else I like.  My cholesterol's low, though, so the sawbones says
that if I get the munchies I can always eat a stick of butter.

   Remember...fat means flavor! ;)
   I must admit...I do enjoy a McD's cheeseburger and some fries once
 in a while.  And the [now discontinued] Jalapeno Poppers from Burger
 King were *really* tasty.  Though I'm not supposed to have quite that
 much salt due to high blood pressure.. :-(
