There's nothing more disappointing than finding out you've landed yourself with some cold, stale chips when you open up a McDonald's bag.
And one way that customers have tried to guarantee roasting hot chips is to request 'no salt.' Since the fries that have already been made are usually already salted, it means there's a good chance you can get a freshly made batch - and if you still want salt you can add some afterwards.
According to a former McDonald's employee who posts on TikTok under the username @jodessy, this isn't the best way to get your hands on fresh fries. The user told people to stop asking for no salt due to it causing too much hassle.
