Yes, Jews can eat french fries, but whether they are considered kosher depends on ingredients, preparation (especially oil), and whether they're eaten with meat or dairy, with strict rules for Passover and general Kashrut needing certification or careful vetting for cross-contamination with non-kosher items.
