Why do Burger King fries taste so terrible? Their burgers are "meh" tier but their fries are horrendously gross. I don't recall them being like that a few years ago.

Maybe.... because the insides are too soft? sounds wierd but that's exactly why I don't prefer them. They're like thinner wedges.

They are my favorite fries and have been for the past 8 years.

I really don't get why anyone would go to burgerking. Their burgers are always drenched in this disgusting chemical ketchup that gives me headaches, their fries taste like paper and the ice cream also has this overwhelming taste of artificial flavor.

Maybe it's only like that in germany?

Yes. If you find a person who makes the deciding factor of a fast food joint over fries, they should left the nearest bus stop and made to make their way home themselves.

I don't get why people hate on BK fries. I like them way better than McDonald's fries, or Wendy's.

Best fries are still Jack in the Box's curly fries though. It's a shame everything else on their menu makes me violently ill.

>not swapping them out for master race onion rings

>> No.3974721

BK changed their frys semi-recently to a thicker style of fry. IMO, not a good change, makes them way too starchy. They weren't exactly the best before, but they were at least passable.

Wendy's is where it's at for frys now. Their change to sea-salt was so good.

>> No.3974722

the one around here does pretty good fries
always crispy with a soft inner

>> No.3974724

I personally think Wendy's fries have gotten worse.

It's sad, they used to be my favorite. Then they started adding sea salt to it, and that's what ruined it.

I don't even mind the sea salt, I just wish they would use less of it. I don't know what they did, but it's way saltier than usual.

you must be opposite me. I LOOOOOOOVE McDonalds fries but find BK and Jack fries to be fucking NASTY. I don't think I've ever had Wendy's fries.

Everyone seems to hate BK but I think they are easily the best of the big three chains for everything except nuggets. I never go because no one else ever goes though.

BK fries are awful. I cant explain it, but it is like the take potatoes, puree them, form the puree into fry shape, freeze them, then toss them in a fryer.

McDonalds fries are better than BK in every way. Even the shitty fries from McD are better than the best BK fries.

NOW, Wendy's. If you get fresh Wendy's fries they are light years better than either McD or BK. If you get those a few hour old Wendy's fries they aren't as good as fresh McD or even old McD. I don't know how that works, but I speak the truth.

On a side note from the big three. I am amazed Five Guys even sells fries. They are awful every fucking time, fresh or stale. They would be better off putting a potato in the bag or a fist full of peanuts. Fuck, at least the peanuts don't suck.

I fucking love the BK Stacker. Everything else they make is dogshit.

>> No.3975289

I had a small fry from BK last night. They were great - much better than mcdonalds. Mcdonalds salts the fuck out of their fries. I can't even finish them. I once asked for just a little salt and they came out unsalted. So it's one extreme or the other at mcdonalds. I'll stick with BK and wendy's fries.

It must be where you live. Everything is pretty great on my local bk menu - except the bk stacker. Those things are atrocious.

>> No.3975292

I like BK burgers better than most of the big chains but I agree, those fries are no good. They've never been good even though BK changes the recipe and touts these "newer better crisper tastier!!!" fries every few years. I think they changed the recipe earlier this year and made them bigger. Still, they aren't good. They don't even taste like potato, they taste like paper.

But at least they have onion rings, which are actually pretty damn good.

>> No.3975294

Love me some Burger King french fries. Your taste buds are trolling you if you don't like BK fries.

>> No.3975299

My favorite fries are anywhere that has crinkle cut fries. Raising Cane's has em. And this local burger dive up the street has the best fucking fries ever, crinkle cut. I don't know how they fry them there but they come out different than anywhere else. Its like the outside is extremely crispy and the inside isn't mushy at all, its almost dry and hollow feeling actually. But they are never burnt they come out perfect golden. I'm thinking they flash fry them in extremely hot oil, hotter than most fast food places.

BK fries suck. So do Wendy's. They are both mealy and not appealing.

Tough break, volcano sauce and potato wedges are awesome. If you ever happen across the kfc/tb combination I'd ask for it. They might charge you $0.50 for the little thing of sauce, but it is worth it. It is complete bullshit, but worth it.
