>>21881263
>>21881263ur mum's fry lmao
crinkle cut fries
dude that's an awesome fry>>21881265exactly
>>21881263Sweet potato fries.Nothing against sweet potatoes but they make SHIT fries.
>>21881266Not even called a fry, it's a potato wedge you doof.
>>21881263Those fat crinkle cut onesOn the opposite side, those floppy shoelace ones (McDonalds)The idea fry is stiff enough to dip, while not being so big that it is mostly potato. DQ, just as an example. Waffle cut is a good fry, because it exemplifies this with not being so skinny it is floppy and has no potato, and not too thick so as to have too much potato. It is also stiff, perfect for dipping or even scooping. Their primary detriment is they can be too big, or even have too much skin on them resembling those wedges as seen >>21881266by this anon. Those are just potatoes. Those are not fries. Judged as a form of potato, they are great. Judged as a fry, they fail. miserably.TL;DRFat crinkle cutSkinny floppy McDonaldsWedges
>>21881318Oh shit dawg i HATE the fat crinkle cuts.More than the red potato wedges
>>21881263shoe string otherwise they are all good. crinkle cut is the best, followed by steak, and then mcdonalds.
>>21881318>The idea fry is stiff enough to dip,if you are dipping fries, those are bad fries.
steak fry
>>21881263crinkle cut is the best fry ever invented.
>>21881334what if it's just good dip
i dont discriminate towards fries. all fries are good fries
>>21881266Wedges are great those ones look like shit though.
>>21881373No.Well, yes to the ones i posted looking like shit. Because wedge fries are shit
Those super thin julienne cut fries. Just awful.
>>21881303came here to say this. truth.
>>21881400I use to go to steak and shake just for these fries. They’re only good hot, and they get cold fast so i understand why they’re not popular
>>21881336>steak frythis
>>21881263crinkle cut. they are always sad and soggy. even when crispy they retain no structure.
>>21881263God-tier>Tater Tots: most scientifically advanced, cripsy outside, fluffy inside, literally perfect>Waffle: maximizes holding dipping sauces, holes hold extra sauce, and that way maintains good ratio of potato-to-sauceA-tier>Steak: wide surface, good for sauces>Curly: curls can hold extra sauce, but sometimes tight spirals get undercookedB-tier>Crinkle: good attempt at holding more sauce, but still a small total surfaceC-tier>Regular cut: can only get a light coating of sauceD-tier>Home fries: texture is too different, while it pairs perfectly with cut up hot dogs, it just doesn't go with much else.>Potato Wedges: often undercooked, and the thickeness of the potato can sometimes throw of the potato-to-sauce ratioF-tier>Shoestring/Matchstick: impossible to dip in sauce, you're pretty much just scooping up handfuls like they're crumbs (which they are)Abomination-tier>Sweet Potato fries: of any shape
>>21881469>Sweet Potato friesI've come to use those things, and Beyond Meat too, as an ad-hoc method of determining how close we are to societal collapse. During covid shortages and panics they managed to sell about a third of their stock (while everything else sold out), which told me things were bad but not so bad that society couldn't recover. I feel it's easier to understand than that retarded 'seconds to midnight' thing those egghead nerds do.
>>21881263Curly fries. People like them, but curly fries are usually seasoned and I suspect they're conflating seasoned fries and curly fries. Curly fries are the only fries where the shape prevents proper cooking, especially with smaller inner fries. This could probably be fixed with a cut that uses two 'starts' so the fries don't contact themselves, but i have never seen this.
>>21881343I think the problem with crinkle cut is hardly no one actually fries them until crispy. When they’re actually crispy crunchy I agree they’re pretty good
ITT: people who are so terrified of hot oil that they can't deep fry any fries>>21881577especially you
>>21881400High ceiling low floor. If you get them fresh they're the best.
>>21881469>every tier determined by saucewhat the fuck man. just drink a tall glass of that "sauce" already, its the only thing you care about.The perfect fry stands alone, a dusting of salt is all that's required.You put sauce on BAD steaks and BAD fries. Since (You) put sauce on fucking everything, everything you've ever had is, by definition, bad.
>>21881263Crinkle cut but really it just come down to which came out of the fryer most recently. Arbys curly mogs everything though so it's just fighting over second place at best.
>>21881265correct>>21881267no>>21881273yes>>21881294yes>>21881303Fuck you>>21881318Fuck you, wedges are good>>21881373Exactly>>21881469Fuck you>>21881541Seconds to midnight away from slipping my massive sweet potato into your mothers frying oil receptacle you Fucker.
>>21881400yes these are the worstI'm pretty sure its so they can sell less potato to you, for the same price as a normal weighed portion of fries.funny how I'm actually irritated thinking about being served those fries, because of how many times they've displeased in the past
>>21881469It sounds like your ideal fry/chip is a bucket of sauce with no potatoes.
crinkle cut is the best fry. perfect crispy texture, ridges at strength, surface area, and stability.they are the best fry in the world.
>>21881334I prefer my fries plain, but to ignore the fact that most people dip theirs in something (ketchup, vinegar, gravy) is just arrogant on your part. >>21881749I didnt say they were not good dumbass. I said that, when judged as a fry, they fail. When judged as a way of eating potatoes, they are great. Sometimes the people on this site have a Kindergarten reading level, I swear.
>>21881263that would be a long list as waffle fires are high on the totem pole.
>>21881263Crinkle cut
>>21882119nonetheless fuck you for not addressing me as Mr Professor Sir
the best fries ever made are crinkle cut.
FrenchCurlyShoestringCrinkleTotWedgePretty much all of them pale in comparison to the glory of the Waffle.
>>21881400It used to be crinkle cut for me but now it's these things without question. What is even the point of these things? Might as well just eat potato chips. I refuse to go to Freddys or Steak n Shake or any cheap ass place that sells these
>>21881263The real truth is it is not the cut that makes the fry good but the place that makes them.Chic fil a makes a great waffle fry but everywhere else I've had them has sucked. Culvers makes a great crinkle cut but a lot of other places just suck at making them.
I love every variety of fried potato except tater tots. I've had them all and I love them all. Except tater tots. Even fries from the Arabs who use old stinky oil are better than tater tots.
>>21881263crinkle cut
the only fry worth eating is crinkle cut all others are shit.
>>21882773Was going to post this, fuck tots.
>>21882798based crinkle cut enjoyerpeople only hate on crinkle cut because it is associated with frozen bag fries. freshly made ones are god tier
>>21881263steak fries, or british "chips"
>>21881266not a fry, but even so, the best wedge will absolutely mog fuck out of the best fry
>>21881400It's crazy how quickly shoestring fries turn cold.
>>21881469never seen a post so fucking wrong in my life ever. tater tots are garbage sweet potatoes are god tier crinkle is largely bad unless it's the cheapest shit at some fucktarded stall you've ever bought potato wedges FUCK and curly has a very weird flavor, much like seasoned. ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>21881749ANOTHER SWEET POTATO BRO. More for us. These PLEBIANS don't understand good taste. Sweet potato fries mog every other form of fry when they're even halfway decent.
>>21882808Crinkle Cut ordered Extra Crispy is THE premier Cheese Fry-Fry. The Best in that form. Although I think generally speaking, the McDonald's Fry, medium-thin straight-cut and not quite shoestring, I think that's The GOAT. Not even saying McDick's specifically but that form.
It doesn't matter at all what you use as long as it has garlic parmesan on it.
>>21881649Fries are meant for sauce. There is no debate about this. Why would you even eat fries without a sauce. Are you poor? I usually have three sometimes four sauces going at any time. We're talking catsup, BBQ, honey mustard, buttermilk ranch, malt vinegar, buffalo sauce. I even fucks with just straight mayo.
>>21881263fatass crinkle cuts. normal is fine, but they have some that are so big that they take forever to bake right.>>21881303most sweet potato fries suck. there is a way to do them right though, and when you have good crunchy sweet potato, it's wonderful. i can totally understand why you don't like them, i didn't for the longest time either, but then i tempura fried my own and they were fantastic
>>21881266100%. I fucking hate wedges. In fact, I am going to go and put wedges in the 'world meme foods in the last 25 years' thread.
Baked/air fried is worst, shape matters less than cooking method. As long as it's fried there are no bad fries. I don't consider sweet potato fries as fries. Fried green beans aren't fries either so it is consistent.
>>21881263These fried whole baby potatoes in Japan.
>>21885216That whole meal looks like it was dipped in radioactive sludge and the drink looks like it was scooped right out of the reactor tank.
>>21885216how was the rest of the museum?
>>21881352Seconded.
>>21881263Stand back , I got this. >never cooked in fresh oil>greasy, never crunchy>difficult to eat, chance of stabbing yourself somewhere sensitive>can’t dip in sauce>stupidly expensive>100% guaranteed to have been prepared by gypsies, felons or drug addicts with HIV, sometimes all the above
damn, does nobody here like to get sweet potato fries just to switch it up occasionally
>>21885220Kek>>21881266Wedges are kino. I'm buying some when I get paid to eat with sour cream.
>>21883199checked. sweet potato fry haters are fucking retarded, and should be designated as such on their government issued ID
>>21886493>Buying some when I get paidYou can get a potato, wedge it, bake the weggies and have perfectly good tato wedges. What do you mean about buying some when you get paid? A potato is a dollar or less.
>>21886508I have $0.74 in my account and I want the pre-prepared ones you get frozen in a bag and just bang onto an oven tray
>>21886560>I want the pre-prepared ones you get frozen in a bag and just bang onto an oven trayThat's why you're poor. Figure it out dood.
>>21886493>I'm buying some potato wedges when I get paidSomething is horribly wrong with how you're living life
>>21886508>>21886560Potato wedges are fried. Roasted potatoes are completely different in both taste and texture
>>21886575Frozen oven wedges are partly pre-fried before being frozen so they come out of the oven nicely.I don't have access to a deep frier and chunks of baked potato are not what I'm looking for.Otherwise yup I would totally make them from scratch.
>>21886577I'm on neetbux with schizophrenia so yes the struggle is real.
>>21881263Fries are just a utensil for eating ketchup, and waffle fries hold a ton of ketchup.
>>21881303Try them with mayo. Then you'll understand.
>>21881263easy
>>21885260Carnie Food is its own experience. >>21887599You should be thrown in Jail so you can get out and make corn dogs and potat spirals for 9 year olds to puke out between meth hits.
>>21887606ive already been to jail, coincidently for amphetamines.
>>21881303Loved em when they first got popular, now they can fuck right off.
>>21881854oil is more expensive than potato retard
>>21881400I like these hot or cold, fuck the haters. Have some steppegrass if you're ever in flanders, anons. holy shit its like crack
>>21881263I would take those over the sysco “battered” fries. Flavorless shoestring fries are also pretty terrible. I usually see waffle fries being over salted but never under seasoned. Their really are worse fries
I think sweet potato fries served with chipotle mayo mogs everything else, but without the chipotle mayo it's kinda mid.
I'm absolutely baffled at the amount of people in this thread saying crinkle cut are the best. In my experience they're usually too thick making the center doughy. A good fry should be crisp on the outside and light and airy in the middle. That's why most common fast food joints use straight cut, it's the easiest way to achieve this.
