She felt that she was wasting time even though she enjoyed the educational course. In this case, the french fries may have reflected her feelings about the enjoyable but ultimately frivolous or unimportant nature of the course she was taking.

Example 2: A person dreamed of seeing millions of clean white plates topped with chocolate cakes, ice cream, french fries, and fried chicken. While they pigged out on these foods they said to themself "This isn't healthy, I need to stop", but kept eating anyway. In waking life, they were trying to be healthy and become more fit, but found it to be a challenge to stop indulging in fried or salty foods. In this case, the french fries may have reflected the person's awareness of themself enjoying eating junk food to pass the time as though it wasn't risky to skip their diet for a moment as one of the reasons they were having difficulty maintaining their new diet.

All the foods in the dream may have reflected the various problematic thinking styles about junk food that the dreamer had (e.g chocolate cake pointing to treating themself for special occasions, ice cream pointing to comfort food, french fries pointing to frivolous snacking, and fried chicken pointing to eating junk food with other people being quicker without needing explanations) that was hinting at why losing weight wasn't going to be as easy as they thought.

Example 3: A man dreamed of buying french fries and accidentally dropping them on the ground. He picked up the packet with the french fries that never fell out and left fries that fell on the ground. In waking life, he was preparing for a New Year's Eve party. In this case, the french fries that were dropped may have reflected his feelings about the frivolous or unimportant aspects of preparing for the party that could be ignored or left behind.
