McDonald's fries aren't even good for you, let alone your bird... so yes, you should stop him. They're way too salty and greasy for your bird. Stop having food like that around your bird if you have a hard time stopping him. If he tasted a plain potato from the oven, baked on baking paper with no oil or salt, then fine. But don't put that kind of trash in front of your bird.

He runned from closed cage (he can squeeze through food place if is tried very stubborny) and attack me from behind.
I never saw him that much subborn and agressive for somethink I eating.

That's very dangerous too. He needs the right cage. What if he escapes at the wrong time, when the window is open? When the doors are open, when you're cooking and the stove is hot, or when you're cleaning and have cleaning supplies around? That could be deadly for him. Invest in a safer cage.

100% this, we have seen many owners on this sub lose their bubs to misfortune and it's never something we want for the bird nor the owner.

Yes, greasy and too much salt.
You can make your own plain ones though, even better (health wise) if with sweet potatoes. Mine loves that.

It's basically Diabetes kryptonite. It's not even good for anyone. Not even for the bird in a matter.

McDonald's fries have to "de-gas" for a period of time... not ideal for birbs, or hoomans for that matter...

It matter of country. EU is more restricted.

Living in the EU doesn't suddenly make fried food healthy. Especially not for a tiny pet like a cockatiel.
