Sweet potato Onion Rings Curly Tots Shoestrings Wedges Waffle Zigzag.

Tots might be lower on the list, but I found they can work surprizingly well in some lazy microwave meals I make, so they get extra points for ease and dependability.

8, 4, 5, 2, 3, 7.

The rest are not worthy.

2, 8, [1/6], [3/4/7], 5

So, shoestring and wedges have such a huge range of quality, there are so many ambiguities here!

Not zigzags though. Zigzags can get fucked.

Edit: But really. Trash shoestrings are tue most trash. If you can get the oil hot enough, or do the double drop trick, you get one of the best stand alone fries, but they arent good for dipping in much more than ketchup, and you cant, like, put cheese on them or anything. You need more substantial fries for that. Wedges are similarly niche in the other direction, and the quality of their preparation varies widely.

Edit: replace zigzags with fried zucchini or mushrooms or mozzarella sticks. Then that slot is back in contention.

I assumed because the category was "things that aren't actually real chips / potato fries" - by being real pieces of fried potato these are disqualified 😅

2 - 6 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 8 - 5.
The wedges you can keep.

Crazy. Mine is almost the reverse of your order

Where the hell are the Cajun fries?

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

Adding Cajun seasoning to 4, 2, 1, or 7 would raise it above the other 3 and make me unsure about whether to raise it above 5.

[-] naticus@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

They are definitely by shape (mostly, sweet potato is the odd one out), not seasoning. You can add Cajun seasoning to any of those and they'd still be what shape they are. Just like I prefer curly fries, but I don't like the ones from Arby's because of their seasoning.

mostly, sweet potato is the odd one out

And the onion rings.

[-] hzl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 3 weeks ago

I challenge you to find me a circular fry made from potato.

I'm not too fussy about my deep fried treats. They're all no. 1 in my book. Except sweet potato, they can fuck off. They taste fine, but why are they always soggy?

[-] cnirrad@lemmy.world 0 points 4 weeks ago

You haven't had good ones then, because a well cooked sweet tater fry that is crispy on the outside and soft in the middle is the best.

Edible tier:

  • Sweet Potato      
  • Onion rings        
  • Curly     
  • Shoestring + tots (tie)      

Garbage Tier:

  • Wedges       
  • Crinkle cut ("zigzag")        
  • Waffle fries (does anyone actually like these?)

Everyone else is wrong. Yes, even you.
