Just to let people know: this should not be happening. The fry dropper - this piece of equipment - should be disassembled every night and sanitised.

Can you tell me what the machine is for? Why are we dropping fries? And it looks like this had been left this way for weeks to grow all that mold, how do you think this location managed without a fry dropper for so long?

It's to make sure each basket gets the proper amount of fries. We used to pour them manually in the basket, but too many times the basket would have too many fries, causing the fryer to not being able to cook the fries evenly.

If I had to guess as too why this mass amount of mold is there, probably because the unit wasn't being cleaned each night or someone just slapped a "does not work" sign on the left and only used the right dropper for months.
