In January 1994, 'The Economist¹' magazine reported that one of Secretary of Energy Hazel O'Leary's success stories about government research scientists hired out for civilian² business uses was the Argonne National Laboratory's helping³ McDonald's to find a way to speed up french frying. A team headed by physicist⁴ Tuncer Kuzay, who interrupted his work on advanced photons, placed sensors⁵ inside the frozen fries and was able to design special frying baskets to deal with the effect of steam created by melting ice crystals and to cut 30 to 40 seconds off each batch's frying time.
