California Woman Arrested After Threatening McDonald’s Workers Over Missing Fries
A California woman has been arrested after reportedly threatening McDonald’s workers over missing fries. Yeah, you can’t do that!
If you go to fast-food joints frequently, then chances are at one point they’ve forgotten something you ordered. It happens all the time. That’s why it’s important to check the bag and count to ensure that all of your items are in there. If they aren’t, you can pull around and tell them and you’ll get the item. There’s never a problem and mistakes happen! What you can’t do is threaten the McDonald’s workers over your missing fries. That won’t end the way you’re hoping and it’s a massive overreaction. This California woman’s overreaction over missing fries ended in her arrest!
Woman Arrested Over Threatening Employees About Missing Fries At McDonald’s
The incident happened in San Pablo, California where Local 12 reports a woman was arrested after she allegedly threatened to use a loaded gun on McDonald’s employees after they forgot her French fries. The San Pablo Police Department received a call from the McDonald’s regarding an unhappy customer who was upset about missing fries. The employees say the customer left the store after initially picking up her order and then sent young kids back into the restaurant to complain to the employees. That’s when the employees told the children that if their mother came back into the store with a receipt they would be able to resolve the issue. It’s as easy as that! It’s all it takes and your problems are fixed. However, that’s not how it ended up going down.
Local 12 reports that the mother returned in a hangry state and started threatening to attack several employees and even said she had a gun in her purse. That’s when employees called 911 and when officers arrived the mother told them she did have a loaded gun in her purse and at the time her 9-year-old daughter was holding the bag containing the gun. That’s definitely not going to help! The police department tells Local 12, “Needless to say, the woman was booked into county jail on several felonies. She had to wait even longer for her food, which was unfortunately a sandwich and milk rather than a hamburger and fries.” The unnamed mother was charged with making criminal threats with a firearm and child endangerment.
Are These The Best French Fries In Fast Food?
It’s a timeless debate. Right up there with “is a hot dog a sandwich?” There may be no definitive answer, but it’s always worth discussing. Who has the best fries in all of fast food?
Everyone is entitled to their own option and taste (literally). However, let’s be honest, there can only be one winner. There’s only allowed to be one winner, and one fry declared the best above all the rest. One fry to rule them all.

Every Day Is Fry Day
When talking about the best fries in fast food, there are no shortage of options. That’s for sure. You’ve got your national big brands. Then you’ve got your local specialties. Then, there’s also the regional restaurants that aren’t in every state, but aren’t strictly in one city, either. We’re taking everything into consideration.
Of course, ranking the best fries in fast food is no easy task. Much like a snowflake, every list is certain to be different. I mean, they’re all on the menu for a reason. If they didn’t taste good they’d be long gone. It’s the same thing with professional sports. Even the worst player on the team is still incredible when you think about it.
I’m no stranger to fast food, the cashier at my local establishment recognizes me when I pull up in the drive-thru. It’s a blessing and a curse, I suppose. So, with that type of experience and dedication I think my list can be deemed credible and valid.

What To Look For In A Fry
Personally, I love a good crunch. A well-done fry is a fry well-done. I’m not big on wet fries or greasy soft fries. They’ve also got to be independently great. If you need ketchup or ranch in order to enjoy the fries then they must not be that great!
Consistency is key, as well. It can’t be one of those “oh one time I had them and they were fantastic, but ever since they aren’t great.” No one hit wonders here. The best fry in fast food has to be something you can depend on. It’s reliable and every time you drive-thru you know what you’re getting.
Let’s not delay. Here are my rankings of the best fries in fast food. You may agree with some, you may hate some of these picks. That’s totally up to you. I will say, some big names are off the list, and likely for a reason.

One word their curly fries can best be described as: iconic. Why not number one? They also offer crinkle cut fries. The worst type of fire of all the fries. Sometimes, I’ve even had to specify that I want the curly fries. It should be the only option.
