Potato fries, commonly known as French fries, are thinly sliced potatoes typically deep-fried until golden and crispy. Originating from Belgium, they are now a staple in many cuisines around the world, particularly American fast food. While primarily made from potatoes, they may contain added ingredients like oil, salt, and seasonings. Fries are a source of carbohydrates and small amounts of fiber, vitamin C, and potassium from the potatoes. However, their health impact depends on preparation methods. Deep-frying increases their fat and calorie content, and excessive salt can contribute to high sodium intake. Baked or air-fried versions provide a healthier alternative with reduced oil and lower fat levels. Moderation is key when enjoying fries, as they can be part of a balanced diet when paired with nutrient-rich sides like salads or lean proteins.
