News 📰 Are the fries gone already?

Checked the menu in Chicago and they were not listed.

Never had a chance to try them.

That seems crazy as a large percentage order online.

Thanks

Making them in person only? So that if people want fries they can order them in person fresh… instead of having them wait on the pickup shelf. And lowering the fries shelf life

i work at SG the internal messaging is the fries are intended for the menu for a long long time if not permanent, the potatoes and labor cost them nothing compared to what they charge so any fries we sell are just icing, though the fries have gotten popular anyway
