Zig zag/crinkle cut goes to the back and I think waffle deserves the #1 spot personally. I agree with the rest of the ordering otherwise.

I love my thick wedges! Shoestring always disappoints me for some reason

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

Assuming they onion rings are beer batter and the curly fries are from Arby's.

Onion rings top, then tots, then everything else

wedges, waffle, tots, onion rings, curly, shoestring, crinkle (never heard them called zigzag), sweet potato

I have had really good sweet potato fries that rank much higher, but they're a gamble. Seem to have greater variation in quality than the other options.

Best to worst: 83752461

  1. Tots (The huge crunchy)
  2. Zigzag (The staple chicken side)
  3. Shoestring (Though they're so common that they get old)
  4. Curly (Big mass)
  5. Waffle (A little too wide)

Weirdos:

Wedges (The Bagpipe Theorem: Phenomenal when it's good, terrible when it's bad, it is at the top and the bottom of the list)

Sweet Potato (I tend to not like sweeter things)

Onion Rings (Please God I have ARFID that's not good crunchy)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Thing a about sweet potatoes is, you can eat em straight. Sweet potato fries by themselves are probably less sugar than regular fries + ketchup

Fuck that potato canoes FTW

Best to worst:

  • wedges (like a mini baked potato, but better!)

  • shoestring (a tried & true classic)

  • curly (the perfect blend of potato & seasoning)

  • zigzag (sometimes can be a bit mushy)

  • tots (sometimes give me heartburn for some reason)

  • waffle (often don’t get cooked all the way, if they stick together)

  • onion rings (a decent alternative to potato based side, but I can’t eat more than a few)

  • sweet potato (they just don’t fry right. The texture gets weird and the taste is off)

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.
