And I don't want this quote to linger on "A second on your lips, forever on your hips".

I want one as well but I'm too lazy to go out and get some or even make some. My hips can rest easy.

@marlina yeah. Although my hips are complaining about the muay thai training that I've been doing. All those kicks and knee strikes require a lot of hip movement and power!

I am afraid that I crave fries or potatoes in general quite often. Several years ago when I went to Upstate NY to meet my then in-laws, I tried vinegar fries for the first time. Here lately I have been thinking about them.

I've had that happen, but not with fries. Usually chocolate in one form or another.

I had a craving for French fries last Sunday, I decided that I had to make them. I do not feel guilty, I ate less the day after.

It is nice to be able not to feel guilty after eating something more "loaded". It is all in the balancing act.

Interesting article and lots of interesting comments on it too! Although as a Brit I have never considered dipping my chips I vinegar, we always sprinkle the salt and vinegar over.

I don't put vinegar on my fries as I think it would burn a hole in my stomach.
