" Alex Macedo, head of North American operations at Burger King, said the chain worked with one of its potato suppliers, McCain Foods, to develop the lower-calorie fries. He said McCain can't sell the fries to other fast-food clients and that different suppliers might have a tough time imitating them. "
" McDonald's and Burger King were both revealed to use McCain's frozen potato products, including its fries, after a former Nando's worker this week revealed that the chicken chain does too. "
" McCain is the world’s largest french fry maker and one of the largest employers in Aroostook County, with more than 500 workers at its Easton plant. The company got its start in the Saint John River Valley town of Florenceville-Bristol, where it has corporate offices and the factory, which opened in 2008 to replace the original plant. The New Brunswick community is located about 5 miles from the U.S. border town of Bridgewater in Aroostook. "
