Dextrose is a natural form of sugar that helps give the fries
their perfect golden color. Sodium acid pyrophosphate is added to
keep the potatoes from turning gray after freezing and before they
are cooked at the restaurant. Citric acid is added to preserve the
freshness of the oil. Dimethylpolysiloxane is also added to reduce
foaming and oil splattering. TBHQ is an antioxidant that acts as a
preservative, allowing the oil to remain fresh from the supplier
all the way to the restaurant.
