[Beev]

LJS fries > Sonic fries (with cheese!) > Arby's curly fries > Five Guys fries > Wendy's new fries > BK fries > McDonalds fries = Wendy's old fries

imo

Fries dipped in frosty will never be the same

After deep meditation and profound regret, I have come to the conclusion that a person's taste if fries is personal. I just hope I don't now kill myself, knowing as I do now that there's no golden fry at the end of the rainbow.

But be of good cheer, I suppose, because I should feel empowered. I can now name any fries I chose to be the champion of the world. And I, of course, will be the greatest person on earth when I eat them.

Haven't tried the new ones yet but the old ones were in the same boat as Carl's Jr fries, good/serviceable when hot out of the fryer and nauseating at all other times. One thing that Carls fries had over Wendys fries is that Carls fries are salted and Wendys aren't so you could ensure decent fries at Carls by ordering them "no salt". Since the fry bin is covered in salt they'd have to drop a fresh batch just for you. Couldn't do that at Wendys 'cuz they didn't salt them anyway.

Sea salt on fries seems bad. Sea salt is generally a much larger grain. That means you get a bite with a big chunk of salt and then a bite with nothing. Is Wendys using finer grained sea salt?

i don't mind the new wendy's fries. i liked the old ones too.

i like the fact that they seemed to be simultaneously new in both Canada and the US.

this is a rare fast-food phenomenon indeed.

I had two double baconators last week. God, those are delicious.
