The most expensive French fries are back

This definitely falls under the category of excess.

 

Serendipity3 on Manhattan's Upper East Side earned a Guinness World Record for the world's most expensive French fries when chefs cooked up Creme de la Creme Pommes Frites, a plate of fries listed for $200. The fries will be returning to the eatery for National French Fry Day on July 13.

 

The fries feature ingredients including Chipperbeck potatoes, Dom Perignon Champagne, J. LeBlanc French Champagne Ardenne Vinegar, cage-free goose fat from France, Guerande Truffle Salt, truffle oil, Crete Senesi Pecorino Tartufello cheese, shaved black summer truffles from Italy, truffle butter, organic A2 A2 100% grass fed cream from Jersey Cows, Gruyere Truffled Swiss Raclette and a topping of 23-karat edible gold dust.

 

I wonder how many fries you get? Maybe if we all chip in a dollar, we each can get one fry...anybody game?

Give me a plan old American French Fry - crisp with a little salt - and I'm happy. That concoction doesn't do it for me, so for that reason "I'm out!"

Gold dust sounds like it's heavy. Would not want to eat it late at night.

Do you get a glass of champagne with it???? Or a frozen hot chocolate?

The Goose Fat makes these non-vegetarian. So, that's a NO from me.

If they made it without Goose Fat...I'm all in.
