Our Meat

Here at Frysmith, we try our best to use meat that is ethically-raised, which usually also means it tastes a lot better, too.
Our SweetPo fries are made with Jidori Chicken from Mao's. It's cage-free, all-natural, local in LA, and considered some of the best chicken you can get in this country. It also costs about 3 times as much as factory-farmed birds. There's a nice article in the NY Times on the Maos and how their chicken represents a "great leap forward." And feel free to roll your eyes on that one.Our Kimchi fries use Snake River Farms Kurobuta pork belly. It's raised on small American family farms with no additives. Kurobuta is a Japanese term for the Berkshire heirloom breed, which means that this particular pork has much more flavor than the standard pigs that were bred to be as close as possible to "the other white meat."
