Shoestring fries from BJ's FTW, well those and any seasoned curly fries. I think it's a damn farce that places that sell regular and SCF's always seem to charge a buck more to "upgrade" to SCF. I think they know the can do this because who doesn't want the superior fry?

It's just damn obvious is all.

Though I do agree with the above poster. Sweet potato fries are pretty good.

deep-fried potato strips: thin strips of potato fried in deep fat

Where I am from it's either normal or sweet potato fries. Normal fries are much better IMO.

Fries from In-N-Out and Chick-Fil-A. :thumbsup: Sweet Potato Fries. Mmmm.

Five Guys is pretty good too, albeit greasy :eek:

Never understood the hate that In-N-Out fries get. Pure greatness. Five Guys' are indeed greasy, and disgusting.

I didn't care for In n Out fries my 1st time there. Now though, I love them. Didn't like Five Guys fries either, but I have only been there once. Unlike In n Out, I don't see me liking their fries down the road.

"natural" doesn't cut it with some folks. beef extracts have to be added (like McD's fries) for it to taste good. o_O
