Europe is crazy about organic food and the trend has been growing steadily over the past several years. But can organic break into the fast food market? A French fry shop owner in Munich is convinced it can.

The eatery may be inconspicuous from the outside, but his regular customers say his French fries are bit thicker, crunchier and tastier than your average fry.
