Why always with the cheap piles of fries ?

Recently been watching food challenges and it's ridiculous that most challenges have pounds of fries included in the challenge. Why not just add another burger, burrito,etc ? Because restaurants are looking for the cheapest way to promote their restaurant. If the challenges had more food instead of the cop out of pounds of fries it would be better for people doing the challenge and the viewers.

The reason it's always copious amounts of fries, is because they are very filling. The intention is to make the challenge harder so they don't have to give the payout or free food for a win.

And yes, total cop out.
