Micky D's are so good, they are the standard. Everything else is fancy and better in different ways.

In-N-Out fries are only good well done or animal style.

KFC's fries are actually pretty awesome when they're fresh, but when they get old they harden into pure obsidian

When cooked perfectly? McDonald's fries.

When not cooked perfectly? Checker's/Rally's seasoned fries.

KFC wedges no longer exist. And the replacements are trash. So I'm not sure why so many people are saying KFC.

The only fries I've tried from that list is McDonald's, and those fries are not very good. It somehow still winning the poll does not bode well for those other places.

But I do realize that the winning strategy for fast food places is to make food that nobody probably thinks tastes great, but tastes just acceptable to most people.

Checkers, it's not even close.

Surprised it wasn't on the poll.

It's the main reason I go there.

the best part about the foodcourt is that there is a checkers, and a five guys 2 stores down.

When you don't want to be ripped off eating the garbage overpriced burgers at 5 guys, you can just go for checkers and have the best of both worlds. Checkers Wings/Cheesechamp/*Other + Five guys Cajun fries.

Five guys hands down. First thing I'm doing when life gets some sort of normality and I'm out shopping is getting myself some chips from them

Five Guys Cajun fries are fine, but the seasoning is literally McCormick Cajun seasoning, not even some good stuff like Tony Chachere. Like everything else with Five Guys, it's fine and good but not really deserving of this cult like ravishment.

I avoided Jack in the Box for years because of the food poisoning but they have pretty good burgers and really good curly fries.

Their fries, along with Arby's curly fries and Five Guys cajun fries, are so much better than standard fries I'm baffled why more places don't have alternate options.

Also, I really don't get the love for Chick-Fil-A's waffle fries. They were voted the best fast food item by The Ringer but are completely average. What am I missing? Do people just love the dipping sauce?

I like Cajun Seasoning. I put that on just about anything I can.

The correct answer is Five Guys, but Arby's is the best of the options presented.

Are Wendy's fries different in the US than in Canada? I always see Americans talking shit about them but I think they're just about perfect.

TBF, Tony Chachere is over salted shit. I wouldn't want that on my glorious Five Guys fries either.

Its usable if you can't make your own or get basically anything else, but it's near the bottom of the pile in terms of Cajun or Creole seasoning blends imo

I personally love Carl's Jr. natural cut fries. So delicious! Also Wienerschnitzel's fries are good.

Top tier fries are McDonalds, though. They make them with crack or something.
