In France, McDonald's is looking at different root vegetables to create new Vegetable Fries. The new limited-edition fries are a combination of beets, parsnip, and carrot fries.Apart from the unique flavor, the new trio has an eye-catching color scheme of orange, red, and yellow. For the fries, 1,500 restaurants across France will receive about 1,500 tons of carrots, 1,000 tons of red beets, and 700 tons of parsnips.One user commented:Comments on the official Instagram post (Image via @mcdonaldsfrance/Instagram)Fans aren't too excited about McDonald's France introducing vegetable friesThe new fries are described by the brand as a "new crispy and gourmet variant" of the chain's famous fries.While some may regard them as a "healthier" alternative to typical French fries, it must be noted that they are still deep-fried and therefore cannot really be labeled healthy.

I don't think their brand can thrive with these kind of changes.A spin on the classic friesWhile traditional fries are composed of potatoes, it is not uncommon for fast-food restaurants to expand that definition. Burger King, for example, sells Chicken Fries, which are fried chicken fingers sliced into the shape of fries. Fried green bean fries and a few other pseudo fries have been seen as appetizers in sit-down casual chains.Now that fries have been added to the McD menu in France, they have undergone a complete redesign. The brand announced:"Discover, for a limited time, the delicious French Vegetable Fries! A mix of beets, parsnips, and carrots for a delicious crispy, and colorful trio of fries. Also available in large portions."Marketing Journo@MJ_offlMcDonald's France is launching vegetable fries made from beets, parsnips, and carrots and thereby, turning french fries multicoloured, very much like the icons and uniforms in these ads!Now, who is game to try out the fries?
