• Shoestrings
• Tots
• Wedges (but not the ones in this picture)
• Onion Rings (they'd be higher on the list but they're not potatoes)
• Waffle
• Curly
• Zigzag (why do they always suck so much? In theory they should be great. Also why are they always sold at public swimming pools?)
• Sweet potato

Anything in the list gets to move up +1 when chicken salt is added if the other contenders don't, except sweet potato or onion rings.

3, 4, 2, 8, 6, 1, 7, 5. Because tots are absolutely immaculate, and sweet potatos (tho good when roasted) are simply not the same kind of satisfying guilty pleasure as the rest.

Ok there's another factor here and that's taking into account the dipping sauce if any.

Crinkle cut without sauce? Bland. With a good sauce? Those little accordion fucks hold way more than shoestring.

Shoestring, Onion Ring, Waffle, Tots, Curly, Wedges, Zigzag, Sweet Potato

I love curly fries, but the ones depicted look pretty mid

Rank is less important than the presence or absence of chicken salt.

1. Everything else on the list
2. Onion rings

What can I say, I love tubers

Yes. Also yes... And yes...

Best to worst.

2, the rest of the list.

Onion rings, sweet potatoes, and you can have the rest.

8, 1, 6, 7, 4, 2, 3, 5

Wedges, winners

Onion rings second depending on their quality

Then sweet potato fries

[paja] (a Spanish variety that's amazing)

Shoe stings

curly

Zigzag

tots

Waffles

The top three are Shoestring, Curly, and Wedges, though not necessarily in that order. I still have not managed to figure out how the fuck restaurants make their shoestring (and steak) fries so fucking good.

Next are waffle fries and onion rings. They're okay.

Sweet Potato fries and tots after that. Just not my thing.

Whoever likes zigzag/crinkle-cut fries is a monster. May god have mercy on their twisted souls.

The secret winner though is zucchini fries, which are mana from the heavens.

Gimme some of those tots

My only strong opinion on the whole chart is that crinkle cut fries are the worst thing shown and thus take last place no matter what

Curly, shoestring, sweet potato. The rest are unappetizing, either too greasy to bear or not crunchy enough. Swap hash browns in for onion rings and we have a contender.

I love all of these, not gonna lie.

My vote is on number 10: Röstis

8, 5, 7, 1, 6, 4, 3, 2

Doesn't matter which, if its done incorrectly its complete garbage.

Done right, each one, extremely delicious... except maybe sweet potato

Never had curlies, tots (not even sure what they are) or waffle fries.
After reading the comments I think I've never had good onion rings or sweet potato fries. Those are a no from me. Onion rings were just deep fried batter and sweet potato was sweet and soggy. Both didn't leave an impresion.

Now my potato of choice is wedges (especially if cooked in an oven). Then whatever is left. Not sure why everyone is hating on zigzags. The thickness is similar to straight fries so it should cook similarly and without seasoning everything will taste bland.

1st: Curly

2nd: Waffle

3rd: Shoestring

4th: Wedges

5th: Tater Tots

6th: Zig Zag

7th: Onion Rings

8th: Sweet Potato Fries

I genuinely love all of these, and struggled to rank them. Just a total potato gremlin.

These rankings also depend a lot on the source. So I just went with the best I've tasted of each.
