Well, to each his or her own.

I think the Five Guys fries I've had are just nasty. Limp, non-crispy, far too fat, greasy.

If I want a 5 Guys burger I'll take the opposite tack and get it but get an order of well-done fries (the secret to fries perfection and In-N-Out).

I order fries at 5 Guys and place them in my car, then go next door for a Double-Double and shake to go.

Problem is more than once every month or so, will put you in the grave.
