Not only are they delicious, news came out this month from a number of different sources ranging from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wmur.com\/article\/study-ingredient-in-mcdonalds-french-fries-may-cure-baldness\/16634604\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">local news outlets<\/a> to national news sources such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/chemical-mcdonalds-fries-may-cure-male-baldness-study-say-799439?amp=1&amp;__twitter_impression=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Newsweek<\/a>, all abuzz over a new study out of Japan saying that a certain chemical used in the cooking of McDonald\u2019s fries could be the key to curing baldness.<\/p>\n<p>It got many people wondering is this for real, or is it just wishful thinking? The answer is possibly a little of both.<\/p>\n<p>The study involved using a chemical called \u201cdimethylpolysiloxane\u201d to try to grow hair on mice. A Professor working on the study reported that \u201cit worked very well\u201d and found new hair growth on mice where they had no hair before and he believes that it shows great promise for humans.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that this chemical is something that McDonald\u2019s uses with their fries to stop the cooking oil from frothing. Once word of this came out, headlines about McDonald\u2019s fries supposedly curing baldness quickly spread around the world in about as much time as it takes to eat a handful of the tasty treats.<\/p>\n<p>A number of articles have since been written to let people know that <a href=\"https:\/\/vitals.lifehacker.com\/no-mcdonald-s-french-fries-will-not-cure-baldness-1822801718\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this isn\u2019t really the cure for baldness that we have been hoping for after all<\/a>.
