today jamie asked me if she could eat maple syrup, then french fries. at this point to some of you a big bowl of those together might sound great. but you CAN eat both of these. first i'll tackle the french fries..
basically while you are doing a cleanse you should try to avoid fried food
on this cleanse most of it is cut out because of gluten and sugar (which is in some french fries), also some french fries are cut out because they have beef tallow or lard or whatever in them... like at mcdonalds. but most french fries are totally vegan.. if you re going to get french fries try to avoid DOUBLE fried french fries.. like from some greek and middle eastern places.. you can make them yourself.. buy them at wild oats or whole foods... they have these giant ones that have sea salt and garlic.
If you are needing a potato fix. Try them with mustard instead of ketchup (which normally has sugar and a higher glycemic index). I love stone ground mustard with fries.
Eat with a veggie patty and lots of veggies! (Maybe skip that bun if you are eating french fries which have lots of carbs to have a more balanced meal). You can even make your own! However, remember what a serving is - probably 8-20 fries.
ps. sorry for the evil picture of fries.
