I'm pretty sure that if fries would lose a billion dollars every year, and McDonalds would close the latest fiscal year with $ 1 billion loss, they would have a very, very, very good reason to discontinue fries, unless they can hope that it will return the investments.
( Sony posted such a result a few months ago, I think it was about fiscal 2009?)
