Dipping > slathering in sauce. Less messy and more control over chip to sauce ratio

[-] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 27 points 4 months ago

But when it's cheese sauce and bacon, the Mess is part of the experience.

As an Australian, here's the real war.

[-] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 4 months ago

Chip = Fry <> Crisp = Chip

[-] not_woody_shaw@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

Or in New Zealand: Chip != Chip

French fries are meant to be dipped. If they have shit dumped all over them, they are no longer fries, they are potato nachos. Which is delicious, but it's not French fries.

Y'know I never thought of chili cheese fries as nachos, but I do love me some chili and cheese on tortilla chips.

Malt vinegar is delicious on potato nachos.

Came here for this. Thank you to you and your fellow Canadians (assuming based on instance) for bringing this treasure to the world.

I eat my fries no sauce. I like the taste potato with a little bit of salt in it.

[-] hakase@lemm.ee 6 points 4 months ago

Same. Sauce ruins good fries.

[-] blaue_Fledermaus@mstdn.io 19 points 4 months ago
[-] Mostly_Gristle@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

The correct answer is chile verde and cheddar cheese. I don't care if you need to eat it with a fork, it's what happiness tastes like.

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 months ago

Fight this:

[-] Floey@lemm.ee 9 points 4 months ago

Call me crazy but I mess my fries up and eat them with a fork.

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 4 months ago

Salt and Malt Vinegar go all over my fries.

[-] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 9 points 4 months ago

Chili, to make chili cheese fries. Yum.

Also good w/ tater tots.

[-] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I sort of consider dipping fries and fries with stuff on them to be two different but related species of meal, pretty much exactly like the difference between chips-and-salsa and nachos. Frychos.

As to preferences, for dipping, spicy ketchup (mix tomato ketchup 1-for-1 with siriacha or other hot sauce); for frychos, fucking everything! Load em up: guacamole, chilli, cheese, onions, peppers, bacon, mushrooms, gravy, salsa, mustard, marshmallows, spinkles, alright alright I'm getting carried away now, you get the idea!

[-] gnomesaiyan@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

I vote for cheesy fries. I used to like malt vinegar on steak fries/potato wedges, but I can't eat it anymore (fucking Celiac's).

[-] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

In the UK most fish and chips shop vinegar isn't malt but tastes just like it (most people don't even know). You can buy the same stuff online or get it from wholesalers.

[-] gnomesaiyan@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Well now I gotta find some here in the States! Thanks!

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

I drown them in malt vinegar and then dip them in tartar sauce.

As God commands. Anything else is sacrilegious.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I put salt on my fries. I dip them not.

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 4 months ago

Messy fries > dipping fight me.

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 20 points 4 months ago

I don't want to fight you, you're covered in condiment

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

If you give me a fork, sure. But if not then bugger off with them and bring me new fries with separate dip.

[-] Midnight1938@reddthat.com 4 points 4 months ago

Well, sometimes you don't want dirty hands

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 4 months ago

Do you not have forks where you live?

Depends on the chips/fries and what the sauce is. Sometimes I want just a wee bit to add a kick, other times I want to be face pounded by some cheesy garlic goodness

[-] solidgrue@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

I love disco fries & poutine, but its not an everyday thing for me. (Disco fries are like an American version of poutine with beef gravy & yellow American cheese instead of cheese curds)

I make a dipping sauce from ketchup & mayo and will variously embellish it with things like mustard/dill relish/sriracha or worcestershire/garlic/oregano/lemon juice

I also make a "buffalo ranch seasoning" with cayenne, garlic, vinegar powder and powdered ranch dressing.

Cheese & bacon bits with sour cream is another favorite.

[-] Aviandelight@mander.xyz 4 points 4 months ago

I'm a basic bitch who usually sticks to honey mustard but I really like your sense of variety. They all sound really yummy.

[-] solidgrue@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

It ain't wrong if it makes your taste buds happy!

salt obviously but besides that cheese and bacon.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago

Sateh saus, mayonaise and raw chopped onions, the "patatje oorlog" in the Netherlands, or "war fries". Sooooo good
