To assemble the french fry bar:
12
Place additional toppings on the table along with the fries and guacamole. Pick the potato of your choice, top with cheese, and melt. Once cheese is melted, add desired toppings and enjoy responsibly, i.e. try your best to limit consumption to less than 5 pounds of fries per person.
