I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my fries turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the salt.

These fries are a great way to use up leftover lemons. I had a few lemons that were about to go bad, so I decided to make these fries. They were a hit!

I followed the recipe exactly and my fries turned out soggy. I think I might have added too much oil.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon, but these fries were surprisingly good. The lemon flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the fries.

These lemon fries are the perfect combination of sweet and savory. I love the way the lemon zest adds a bright flavor to the fries.

Meh. I thought these fries were just okay. The lemon flavor was a bit too strong for my taste.

These lemon fries were absolutely delicious! The lemon flavor was perfectly balanced with the saltiness of the fries. I'll definitely be making these again.
