CeleBrat Posted May 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 9, 2023 On the Celebration this week, and I can 100% confirm that Guy’s fries have been “dumbed down” so that they are just regular fries with a slight dusting of spice. Picture from 15 minutes ago. Pure sadness… 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mz-s Posted May 9, 2023 #3 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Yeah they went from the delicious, tender, fresh cut fries to Ore-Ida. It's really sad. Especially since they stopped serving mushrooms too. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, I loved them. Heald said it's because people just didn't eat enough of them and they were throwing away too many. I miss them Edited May 9, 2023 by mz-s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess after they throw away all the spa fliers, unpurchased photos, and uneaten mushrooms their trash cans are full. Dang, if I had known that I would have taken more. I always tried to just take a spoonful as a side, because I know they were meant more to be a topping on a burger and I didn't want to scarf them all up eating them as a side dish. Bring back the mushrooms! I WILL EAT MORE! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind asking for my spoonful of 'shrooms. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all the various gyrations in Guy's and still not back to the original my opinion is that they could serve poop and Guy would approve as long as he got paid. Most times the fries they serve these days are not bad, but they are not Guy's. It is like if the French had a shortage of grapes and started making champagne with California grapes. Might be good, but the name champagne would then mean "whatever is cheap and available" which is what Guy's now means to me. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare AtSeaWithChris Posted May 10, 2023 #12 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I miss the bacon crumble at Guys and I also miss the good fries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted May 10, 2023 #13 Share Posted May 10, 2023 They still have the sautéed onions, which are really good. DD takes them as a side dish with her lunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BoozinCroozin Posted May 10, 2023 #15 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I am pretty content on just being able to have a burger and fries when I want. If the type of fries they use makes or breaks a cruise, then I am cruising for the wrong reasons. 9 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sparks1093 Posted May 10, 2023 #16 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I've never had an issue with the fries, they've always been tasty. I didn't even notice whether or not mushrooms were on the toppings bar or not a few weeks ago. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted May 10, 2023 #20 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Of late, my favorite fries onboard have been at Shaq's - hopefully, on the Celebration in 10 days (not that I'm counting or anything), they'll live up to my memory !

mz-s Posted May 10, 2023 #21 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Laugh while you can, folks. One day your favorite menu item or perk will be gone (or maybe it already is and you're down to your 5th or 6th favorite, just hoping Carnival doesn't cut any more) and everyone will mock you for mentioning it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t stuff myself every evening in the MDR without paying $5 bucks starting with that third entree. What’s next? Don’t tell me they are going to take away the midnight buffet or I’ll faint. I hate to break it to you....but don't worry; I'll catch you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
