Canadians urged to eat more fries as 200 million pounds of potatoes become latest food victim of COVID-19
Simultaneously crisp and tender, steamy and salty, it’s hard to beat french fries fresh from the fryer. Delivery fries, like homemade oven fries, just aren’t the same. It’s only natural that proper french fries would be up there on many people’s lists of most-missed foods during lockdown.

Our collective longing makes it all the more painful to know that around 200 million pounds — more than 90 million kilograms — of Canadian french fry potatoes are stuck in storage.

As counterintuitive as it may seem, with so many people gravitating towards comfort food cooking, french-fried potatoes have become a slow mover. With many restaurants across the country closed due to COVID-19 — where three-quarters of Canadian potatoes are usually eaten — the market for fries has diminished dramatically.

French fry potatoes are a special breed of spud, larger and more elongated than the varieties commonly available in the produce sections at your local grocers. Their raison d’être is to be cut into batons and packed into bags for food service. They were bred and grown specifically for the fryer.

We're growing lots and we need to keep them planted frequently.
The Devil tries to convince everyone he doesn't exist.
The state tries to convince everyone they cannot resist.
