Never had curlies, tots (not even sure what they are) or waffle fries.
After reading the comments I think I've never had good onion rings or sweet potato fries. Those are a no from me. Onion rings were just deep fried batter and sweet potato was sweet and soggy. Both didn't leave an impresion.

Now my potato of choice is wedges (especially if cooked in an oven). Then whatever is left. Not sure why everyone is hating on zigzags. The thickness is similar to straight fries so it should cook similarly and without seasoning everything will taste bland.

Sweet potato Onion Rings Curly Tots Shoestrings Wedges Waffle Zigzag.

Tots might be lower on the list, but I found they can work surprizingly well in some lazy microwave meals I make, so they get extra points for ease and dependability.

Rank is less important than the presence or absence of chicken salt.

[–] wieson@feddit.org 1 points 9 months ago

Onion rings second depending on their quality

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 1 points 9 months ago

Onion rings top, then tots, then everything else

[–] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

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.

[–] JohneryCreatives@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

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

[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Ok there's another factor here and that's taking into account the dipping sauce if any.

Crinkle cut without sauce? Bland. With a good sauce? Those little accordion fucks hold way more than shoestring.

Shoestring, Onion Ring, Waffle, Tots, Curly, Wedges, Zigzag, Sweet Potato
