How many bonus fries do you need to find before you consider it spilled fries?
Three or more. Let's be honest though, I probably spilled those myself. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
Five or more. I have at least some standards. 20%  20%  [ 1 ]
Twelve or more. Sure, empty the whole thing of fries in my bag, why don't ya? 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
The whole thing of fries in my bag. I'd just eat them all like this if I could. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
One or more. There is no such thing as bonus fries, only sloppiness. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
Zero or more. They're, like, kinda like ALL bonus fries, like ya know? Be happy with what you got. 20%  20%  [ 1 ]
Zero or fewer. I don't like fries, bonus or otherwise. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
Any number of fries. So long as they're still warm, it's bonus. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
Fractional number of fries. There is an infinitesimal point beyond which they are spilled fries, ie coastline problem. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
Irrational number of fries. Petunias. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
Numbers are a meaningless concept. The universe is a sham. Nothing actually matters. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
You got fries? And you're worried about spilling them? First world problems, man. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
It's relative. An astronaut travelling at near the speed of light may disagree with your observation. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]
None. Desire is the cause of suffering. You desire bonus fries, so you suffer when that need is not met. 20%  20%  [ 1 ]
(-1)^(1/2). Some number of fries is spilled. We can't imagine what that number is, but we can use it to calculate how much milkshake was not consumed. 40%  40%  [ 2 ]
Yarium has all the answers. This is your other choice. I already know, so just let everyone else know by posting it. 0%  0%  [ 0 ]

I just found 4 in my bag. I was happy with three, and I was happy with the fourth, but I think if it hit 5 or more I wouldn't be happy. How do you feel about bonus fries?

I don't understand the question. "Bonus Fries" is an unfamiliar term.

based on the context, i imagine it refers to the following phenomenon:

when you order fries from a fastfood place, they put the fries in the fry cup thingy, and then the fry cup thingy in a brown paper bag. You then take the fries (and other food) out of the bag and eat them, and then later discover that there were extra (bonus) fries at the bottom of the paper bag, presumably because they fell out of the fry cup.

I like to go to Five Guys, where they put a cup of fries in the bag, then dump an additional half of that more of fries into the bag. .

I do not care for those fries, but they are a great example of what bonus fries are

At Five Guys now I just get a cheeseburger and an ice water. Full after. Still mastering the right combo of toppings. For sure raw onions is one of them, just haven’t figured out the rest yet

i.
You can't just give me the option to answer "i", and expect me not to do that.


As for the actual question... I know fries are always overcosted, and someone is always profiting off of me every time I buy them, so, uh, I'd eat an extra package without any shame.

Also, fries succ. They are dry, tasteless (literally AND figuratively), and way too unhealthy for the little enjoyment they give.

Don't order anyting fried and/or overly sweet in McDonald's, and you can almost consider it healthy.

I'm always partial to jalapenos on my cheeseburger, but I like spicy things in general.

McDonald's fries, sure, those are bad. Good fries aren't dry. Tasteless... I'll give you somewhat bland, but starchy food isn't tastless. Admittedly, I enjoy eating saltines, so I am somewhat biased. They are definitely unhealthy though, no arguments there.

For what Bonus Fries actually are, I think it's covered somewhere in here:
