Restaurant Switched From Crinkle-Cut, To Straight Fries And People Are Mad

Jim and Leslie Parsons own a little fast food joint called Bolley's Famous Franks in Waterville, Maine. They've been around since 1962.

They bought it about a year ago, and they just made a big change: They switched from crinkle-cut to straight fries. Their new fries are about the same size as the ones at McDonald's.

They said they did it because the machine that does the crinkle cutting keeps breaking down and the blades are really expensive. So they had to make the change.

But their customers are FURIOUS. Or, as they put it, quote, "disturbing and hostile."

They've had people yelling at them. They've had people swearing at them. And Jim even had one guy try to FIGHT him.

So now, the Parsons are asking for people just to be peaceful . . . but they aren't planning to switch back to crinkle-cut.
