Who here is part of the no fries club? I order a burger, and if I'm still hungry I order another burger. Fries are just a cheap trick by burger places to steal your money without offering real real sustenance aka meat.

if it had no sustenance it wouldn't fill you up.

IMO they should always come with fries. There are a handful of Gourmet burger joints around here that sell burgers with no fries. Now while the burgers are delicious I can get a bigger burger thats still really good that has fries included for about 2 bucks less.

I made two burgers and French fries at home last night. It was tasty.

Some places make banging fries though.

It's just the chain restaurants where I MIGHT skip them.

unironically basd and true, make your own fries. Any place that uses anything other than beef tallow to fry their potatoes deserves to face the wall

They should serve all burgers with either tater tots or hasbrowns. The superior fried potato options.

I’m with you, two burgers and a coke is god tier.

I agree with you, OP. I've started not buying fries, because I find the taste of the burger is best appreciated without extras.

my local burger place does really nicely seasoned chips so I always get them

i'll usually get small fries and a small side salad. seems more satisfying that way. but instead of filling up on fries, if i don't think the burger will be filling enough i'll order it with an extra beef patty.

[Anonymous No.17067919]

No fries and I don’t get cheese anymore either. Cheese is totally unnecessary on a good burger. Just useless calories

I go for the cheese curds, fuck fries

[Anonymous No.17067944]

>>17066940
When I do this it's because one hamburger is enough to fill me up and I don't want some filler fries.
Also I skip the soda, just plain water.

Meat is pretty shitty in energy, retard. The fucking sauce and bread probably have more joule than the meat bun

I like to go up to the counter at my local diner, sit down, and say “Waitress! One cheeseburger, one hot dog, one root beer!” They know I don’t want any fries. The only fries i will eat are the ones fried in beef tallow or duck fat

are you supposed to eat fries before or after the burger?

[Anonymous No.17068075]

I usually order an alternative. Wendy's has their chili. Smashburger has brussel sprouts.

[Anonymous No.17068096]

>>17066940
I love fries but generally with a burger I prefer something lighter on the side. A side salad or >>17068075 Smash's Brussels are a good option. The burger is the highlight; anything else is just extra.

Question to you OP. Outside of the context of burgers, do you like fries?

[Anonymous No.17069212]

>>17068098
Yes they are delicious. But I don’t think they add to the experience of a good burger

[Anonymous No.17069221]

Me, personally? I'd like it if there was a burger joint with slightly smaller portions that gave you 3 or 4 things per meal instead of a burger and fries.

[Anonymous No.17069236]

>>17066954
As a customer you just expect it to have fries? Interesting

[Anonymous No.17069260]

Yeah it's how burgers have been served in the USA for a long time. People serving them without fries is a more recent thing

bread is even more likely to fill you up with useless carbs, you're better off demanding a cheaper price if you go without a bun or use some lettuce leaves

[Anonymous No.17071175]

I can't remember the last time I went out for a burger but when I make one at home, I generally had salad as a side rather than fries.
I cooked up some fries the Tuesday before Thanksgiving, though. Had'em as a side to a pair of bean-and-veg burgers I made. Was good.

Beef Tallow is $36 for enough to fry in. I don't know how long that would last but seems extravagant for fries.

yes that's how they're always served here without exception so it's very very bizarre to be served a burger without fries.

[Anonymous No.17072911]

>>17066940
Yeah man, I don't really like the fries served at most places, so I either order onion rings or a double burger. The dudes at in n out always sound disappointed when they ask me if I want fries because they're obligated to ask.

>Who here is part of the no fries club?
Me. I prefer a beer and a side salad with it. Sometimes I cram the salad into the burger if it's convenient to do so.

[Anonymous No.17073099]

>>17066940
The value of the fries is nowhere near the price added to the total by combo'ing the burger. With the potatoes and oil and frying and labour, the fries might cost 60 cents for a large, at most, to make. But they add on like three fucking dollars to the price for the combo. The sugar water is an even worse value when it comes to the combos. So yeah, combos are for rounding out the meal, but they're a shitty value.
