McDonald's takes its fries seriously in Canada. So seriously, in fact, that as part of its new mobile app the chain promises to save your fries from fry theft. A spokesperson asks: "Has this ever happened to you? You're about to enjoy a delicious order of McDonald's French fries when, suddenly, you're a victim of fry theft."
McDonald's Canada has noticed a "troubling rise in fry crimes — or 'frimes' across the country." Apparently, 99 percent of Canadians are at risk for frimes. McDonald's new Fry Defender "turns your smart phone into a fry fighting machine." It's part of the McDonald's Canada app, and is available now in the App Store.
