I don't know man, I feel pretty great when eating fries :)
If we reduced the sweatiness of items we could enjoy them just as much as our senses adapt quite quickly. If I stop sugar for just 2 days and then eat something somewhat sweet it tastes very sweat.
It's a big issue with the food industry trying to outsweet each other because people are so used to the taste of sugar. Artificial sweeteners are also to blame for setting a hight expectation of sweetness in products.
A slightly healthier but equally delicious replacement for fries are oven-roasted or grilled duck fat potatoes with the skin on.
