Triple-cooked chips are usually parboiled and twice fried; if anything it's probably healthier than a single fry, because the first fry is brief and hot to crisp up the exterior, so the oil absorption's less the second time, and perhaps less overall than a single (necessarily cooler) fry.
The chips in question are deeply brown and shiny, but your reasonable-sounding explanation suits my need for self-delusion so well that I will accept it whether it’s true or not.
healthwise i guess for the bad
