Answer 2

HI, MY UNCLE SAID THE SAME THING, ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER, HE HAD TO GO TO THE DOCTOR FOR A REFILL ON A PRESCRIPTION, THE DOCTOR DID BLOOD TESTS AT THE SAME TIME, GUESS WHAT, WE FOUND OUT UNCLE BOB HAD DIABETES. HE IS NOW TAKING MEDICATION, NOW WHEN ON OCCASION HE GOES TO MCDONALD'S, HE HAS A SMALL FRIES.  IN TALKING TO A FRIENDS DAUGHTER WHO WORKS FOR THEM, CATHY STATED THEY USE SALT MIXED WITH ""S U G A R"", THAT IS THANK GOD WHAT PROMPTED UNCLE BOB TO FINALLY AGREE TO BLOOD TESTS, HE IS EVEN AT 55, AFRAID OF A NEEDLE.

Answer 3

Come on now he has to be pulling your leg!

Answer 4

They don't mix the salt with sugar, the salt they use is the normal table salt everyone uses (I have the same stuff at home: i used to work there).

This is a myth! It's a funny one though.

The most I can see is the sugar from the drinks/burgers/shakes etc give you a "sugar high" but McDonalds fries wont show up as alcohol in a breathalyser.

Answer 5

sounds to me like he is an idiot

Answer 6

talk about stories being drunk and french fries after a long night of partying to sober up we would hit either burger king or wataburger (Friend had a g*y phobia and hated go their at that hour) at say three or four o'clock in the morning one time experience order 3 large F.F. and that seem to do the trick rode home got off the car and felt sorts queasy  and before you now it french fries everywhere next morning id thought i had to clean the drive way lo and behold clean a a whistle birds picked up everything felt sorry for them??

Answer 7

Maybe trying to eat the fry while you drive may make you swerve if you are not too coordinated, but the frys themselves won't make you drunk.
