It's not just American fast food joints -- it's everywhere. We were in
France from Christmas day until 18 January, and good French fries are
becoming almost extinct. Especially in the southern half of France,
the dominant fries are what we would call ranch fries -- although over
there, they're often called "American fries" on the menus.

It wasn't until we returned to Paris that we were able to find
excellent French fries.

What a pity.
