Are Hand Cut Fries / Chips Healthier?

Hand cut fries are not uniform, but are usually thinner, crunchier and less floury than the mass produced frozen fries.

However, thick fries are ordered in bulk by many modern cafes and restaurants nowadays for convenience, to save on labour cost and time. What a shame!

Whether it is healthier depends on the type of oil used in frying. Increasing concern over transfat has led to replacement of animal fat with vegetable oil.
