"But according to a 2022 report from the company, french fries are the most ordered item in every single state in the country - beating out the basic cheeseburger in second place, and a surprise showing from the McChicken in third."
"Every year, McDonald's reportedly serves more than 3.6 billion orders of fries in the U.S. alone - the equivalent of more than 255 billion individual fries."
"That is far, far more than the estimated 550 million Big Macs it sells each year, and well more than the 100 billion burgers of any kind it's estimated to sell in that same period of time."
"With their perfect ratio of anterior crunch to fluffy potato interior, the thin and crispy golden fries from McDonald's are considered the platonic ideal - even by professional chefs."
McDonald's french fries rank as the single most ordered menu item across every U.S. state. The chain serves more than 3.6 billion orders of fries annually in the United States, amounting to over 255 billion individual fries. Fries outsell estimated annual Big Mac sales and contribute to totals that exceed 100 billion burgers of all kinds over the same period. The widespread consumption is reinforced by fries being included in combo meals. The fries are noted for a thin, crispy exterior and a fluffy interior, a texture profile praised even by professional chefs.
