Man, and I thought french fries were already bad for you to begin with,
adding mayo seems to put them in the death wish category.

No. I love crepes, but they were difficult to find. The special
in most of the cafes was ham and cheese, grilled or otherwise.

Wrong. Mickey D sells hamburgers, chicken, even fish and salads,
but not ham and cheese. That is french cafe fare.

you can't be serious. last time i were there, they were on pretty much every
block. with sugar, with chocolate, with greek salad (which had very
little to do
with greek salad if you ask me)... not sure about cafes though -- i guess it's a
street food.

It's either a newish thing, or

Actually Frank I may have misled you. We do not put mayo on fries, we
actually dip the fries in the mayo. The mayo is served in a small container
on the side, so we can double dip the container is not shared.
You are right about it
I think mayo on fries is a Paris thing. I've had it there a couple of
times. Don't know about the rest of France.

French kitchen has much more good dishes than fries-mayo !! :o
Agreed. I love French food and was hesitant to waste my appetite on a
mere potato. Although as an American in Paris, one must at least
sample the pommes frites to see what the real thing tastes like.

This is very true.The last French restaurant I patronized with my friend
June produced for us beautifully arranged and most delicious appetizers.
Following two small bites, they were gone. The main course was a joy, both
to the palate and the eye - three small bites, and they were gone as well.

I may be wrong, but the Dutch have had mayo with frites for millennia ;-)
You're not wrong there, mate.
In fact they even surpass the mess known as Poutine with their frietje
oorlog.
Literally war fries - mayo, sate sauce , diced onions red sauce.

Not out here.
Mayo is a sandwich condiment. Out here it is gravy or Poutine
