One man's opinion on the best (and worst) fast food French fries.

Spoiler:

Looks about right to me.

Pretty good line up. I agree with just about all in that order. Definitely love Five Guys fries.

McDonald's above Arby's..😐? Nope. 

Their cheesy fries are at the top of food chain. Easily. They will roam the earth long after mankind is gone.

Pretty good ratings.

i’d personally put McDonald’s over five guys, and I’d move shake shake up a bit on taste.  but that’s nit picking.

I’ve always been amazed at how lousy In’n’Out fries are, especially compared to their burgers, which I love.

I take any of those top four as being equal, just depending on where you rate texture/taste.

I was never a big fan of McDonald's fries. I would claim Five Guy's fries as more superior than McDonalds.

KFC's potato wedges aren't fries and they're damn delicious.

Malcolm Gladwell did a podcast a couple years ago about “McDonald’s broke my heart” when they changed their French fry preparation years ago.

I think they were formed from a ground up potato and seasoning mixture, they def weren't just cut potatoes

They taste good, but are way too greasy, to the point of sogginess.  I’ve always said that McDonald’s is the gold standard in fries. Looks like I’m not the only one…

    • I really think it's just to keep people from doing silly stuff like saying "Oh, yeah, that spike mark will be my ball marker." or "That slightly greener blade of grass." Then when they go to replace their ball they have literally no idea which spike mark or blade of grass.

    • Not trying to be difficult, but did the USGA/R&A provide a rationale in 2016 for why the object needs to be artificial?  I would assume it is to make sure your mark is absolutely identifiable to you so you re-mark your ball in the correct location, and not accidently in a location where a similar natural object is sitting?  If that is the case, I would think that taking a natural object and humanly modifying it (drawing on it with marker, ripping it in half, etc) would be enough to make the object identifiable and turn the natural object into an artificial one.
