Description:

Have you ever wondered what kind of fry alternatives are available? There are many alternatives to regular French fries, like sweet potato fries and yuca fries. However, these are just other starchy vegetables that don't taste too dissimilar from regular fries once cooked up. And, hey, I love fries, so I'm not knocking them. However, sometimes I'm looking for something that packs that same crunchy and yummy bite-sized flavor in a different food. That's why we've created our own crispy green bean fries! These fries are just as delicious as our standard fries but with the added benefit of being a green vegetable! But do they fit the criteria of being a fry? Well, they're bite-sized, handheld, crunchy, savory, and delicious so we think so!
