Smoked French Fries, The Second Time Around

So I was feeling lazy and hungry and succumbed to the temptation of fast food, in this case Mcdonald's. Since I got some fries, I thought I may as well smoke 'em. I dumped them in a bowl, covered in plastic wrap, and smoked them with applewood. They were even better than normal. Now to figure out if it worked this time because the fries are thin, because they're actually fried as opposed to baked, because I used a different smoke, some combination of all these, or none of them.
