MINNESOTA'S FINEST
We're also happy to announce that Fresh French Fries is gluten-free and kosher-certified! After the spuds are washed, peeled, and cut, they're cooked in gluten-free and trans-fat-free vegetable oil, then topped with a light dusting of salt. Ketchup and vinegar are available for dipping your delicious fries!
