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.

I really miss the older recipe of fries that Booger King used to have, like 10+ years ago

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…

    • My wife is going to drag me to see Wicked.   She is very excited to see it.   We saw the musical while in Chicago and thought it was very good.  I'm not usually a fan of musicals but I'm looking forward to seeing this.   Gladiator 2 does look good.   I'm going to go back and watch the original Gladiator before going to the theater.
    • MSN Glover expressed his dissatisfaction with what he termed as 'cool kid meetings' between Jordan Spieth, Patrick Cantlay, Tiger Woods and other high-profile golfers. "I think it's terrible," he stated. "And then hiding behind pace of play, I think, challenges our intelligence. They think we're stupid.     "Don't cut fields because it's a pace of play issue. Tell us to play faster, or just say you're trying to appease six guys and make them happy so they don't go somewhere else and play golf." Fitzpatrick joined the conversation on X (formerly Twitter), with the 30-year-old echoing Glover's sentiments regarding the PGA Tour changes. "He's so right," Fitzpatrick posted. "Pathetic that pace of play is spoken about every year and nothing ever gets done."     I agree. Instead of  penalizing  players for  turtle  play they appease the  slow jerks  by  cutting the  fields. They will play even slower  knowing they will NEVER be  penalized.
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 3 years  My current handicap index or average score is: 1.5 My typical ball flight is: neutral /slight draw The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: hook   Looking for some advice please folks. Started golfing three years ago and got hooked. Had some early lessons and was a slicer etc.  I used to have a severe inside takeaway and through working hard to fix as ever (this game…) it’s now gone too far the other way where I take it back way outside.  i think it looks really bad and have gotten a lesson last year where we tried to competely reset the swing and it ruined things for months as I couldn’t get it to stick (my fault).    anyway do I need to fix this? I hit it reasonably solid but don’t know what else I’m looking at or need to clean up. All opinions welcomed!  Videos:   
    • A local film critic gave the movie “Wicked” a great review. I saw the stage musical several years ago (pre-COVID) and enjoyed it. Likely won’t see the cinematic version but one never knows. I probably will go to “Gladiator 2” at some point unless the reviews are terrible.
