There's a long story about those waffle fries which Simplot developed at a great expense for Burger King I believe. Then, BK ultimately passed on the item and that left Simplot with a huge development bill for lathes and molds, etc. Enter Chick Fil 'A who made a deal with Simplot to carry the waffle fries and stick with them for an extended period, and at a discount, to help Simplot offset their expenses. And they ended up becoming a signature item for Chick Fil A...
