This is a terrible list.

McDonalds original - cooked in beef tallow - would blow all of these out of the

We still break out the commercial fryers at family reunions

mobicurious

May 3, 9:29am

that sounds amazing

At one of my cousin's wedding receptions, they cooked over 4 tons of potatoes

mobicurious

May 3, 9:48am

Do you have any single cousins?

IceCreamButt

May 3, 9:50am

Yes, they're all in their 50s and 60s now

mobicurious

May 3, 9:53am

Of course he does they eat 4 tones of French fries for events.

When you're from Cassia County, you've got a lot of extended family!

4 tons?

If you had an opportunity for all-you-can-eat fresh fries

mobicurious

May 3, 11:27am

Too many. Far too many.

scall

May 3, 11:35am

For that event, they planned on 5 pounds of fresh potatoes per person

mobicurious

May 3, 11:39am

Agreed, no one ever came close to the original McDonald's fries.

I thought beef tallow was just to keep wrinkles off your face?

Captain Stubing

May 3, 11:07am

Don't think McD's ever used straight beef tallow

In-N-Out still ranked too high.

Chick fila needs to be 7 slots lower

CougarHut

Well done garbage is still garbage. In n out should be last.

IceCreamButt

They need to learn the double fry technique. That alone would elevate them.

Adwight

May 3, 9:30am

And using a Russet like basically everyone else.

IceCreamButt

May 3, 9:49am

They chose the absolute worst potato variety to use

I believe that KFC's are top. I'm disappointed to see BK down so low.

Revolution

May 3, 9:32am

I’m going millennial… this list offends me! ——————————————————————————————— Oh, and 5 Guys should clearly be at the top!

GangstaLean

May 3, 9:33am

In-N-Out even being on the list invalidates the whole thing. They aren't fries.

Hoid

May 3, 9:33am

Best thing to do with all these fries it take them home and air fry them. Make

I watched the video, and while interesting I have several problems with his method

Having some insights into the industrial processes for frozen fries

mobicurious

Freddie's are too frustrating to eat with ketchup or sauce.

Mister P

May 3, 9:39am

I agree, but feel like the problem is they are too short and stubby.

JJCoug

May 3, 9:43am

Yes they are, I don't like them

I'm almost backward for restaurants frequented: 23, 18, 19, 16, 14, 4, 4, 21

I tend to agree with you. I actually really like Wendy's fries

BlueOptimist

May 3, 9:45am

They really stepped it up recently. Last time I had fries and Wendy's they were far better than the fries I'd had from

scall

I don't care for Chick-fil-a fries. Every time I've had them, they're

benny1982

May 3, 9:51am

That's fair. I've certainly experienced that at CFA, but usually they're good

Still Questing

May 3, 9:54am

Mine are always undercooked- so they flop around.

scall

May 3, 10:00am

Chick-fil-a criminally undersalts their fries. It's not hard to salt them!

CSoul

May 3, 10:50am

Every fast food place undersalts their fries. I always ask for a salt packet.

Skeptical Optimist

May 3, 9:44am

In-N-Out was based on their regular fries, not the well-done

ochobeeguy

May 3, 9:45am

Tried well done recently....worse

Plato

Garbage either way.

Chubby’s recently opened in Heber. I tried their beer battered fries. Probably my favorite fries from a burger place now

Just ate there this week after fishing strawberry. Those fries are amazing.

boctabulous

Get their buffalo chicken tenders. It’s like butter. Best I’ve ever had.

Adwight

May 3, 4:08pm

Sounds awesome. I got the philly and it was pretty good.

boctabulous

French fries are very important to people in America

Cougrrrs Roll

It's to bad Big Juds didn't make the list, yummy.

RC Vikings

I guess I don't understand how Cook out didn't make it

Flawed scoring system.

How would you change it?

mobicurious

May 3, 11:28am

I feel like Wing Stop is missing from this list. By far my favorite fries.

BlueDesk

May 3, 11:09am

Yeah they add that sugar to the seasoning(I think) and it’s good stuff

SwanSong

May 3, 12:29pm

Every fry I've ever had from wingstop borders on soggy
