Two stroke snowmobiles still run an oil injection system (along with direct injection and oiled crank bearings on some models). Ipone used to make scented oils. Remember being miles deep in the back country, riding along and suddenly smelling cherries. The scent trail would last for 1/2 a mile.

I would imagine because of how thhhiccccc some of the oils people use are. I do that with the BRZ anyways too haha. Makes it easier to shift in the cold mornings .

Adding French Fries to the top of a Pizza isn't the same as actual Pizza Fries. Think Italian version of Poutine. Mmmmmm...

Fries or as we like to call them 'chips' great!! But I'm a bit worried about what is lurking under the layer of chips ..

The fries would get too cold too fast, and would be awful on cold breakfast pizza. I'll take mine on the side please.

I'm with you on pizza, fries on the side.

However, fries inside a burrito are fantastic.

Had a small work Xmas night out, ended up at a local Steak house, tried out their triple cooked chips... I should have ordered "normal" chips to compare as I didn't appreciate the hype...
