It's pretty obvious fries aren't good for your health, but a study has found eating fried potatoes at least twice a week brings an increased risk of death.
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition published a study which looked at potato consumption in 4400 people between the ages 45 and 79.
Over the course of eight years, 236 people died.
Eating fried potatoes - including hot chips, fried potatoes and hash browns - at least two times per week was linked to a more than doubled risk of death.
Unfried potatoes, with a good amount of fibre, vitamins and micronutrients, were not linked to an increased risk of death and are relatively healthy.
Fried potatoes typically have lots of fat and added salt, can be associated with an increased risk of death, the study said.
