Hello,
My opinion is if you are sure french fry is stuck in wind pipe and/ or if you are experiencing breathing difficulties, you should go to Emergency Room (ER in US, Canada) / A&E (Accident & Emergency in UK).
Doctor will perform endoscopy procedure and find if the french fry is stuck and if it is stuck, he will be able to remove it under vision.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
