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.
