I generally hate europe vs. america arguments but everytime I see some european "chips" they look like they just microwaved a cut potato. The double fried french fry is godly and definitely only needs a little salt. They're usually accompanied by a refreshing chicago dog or greasy cheeseburger or satisfying but gut pounding beef sandwich depending on which route you choose, don't fuck with those fries if they look like the ones in OP's picture.

Meanwhile in England...

they don't need to be matted down to retain crunchiness. there's a small amount of residual grease but they don't look soggy. the discussion was about the method of frying and preparing fries.

Something that is limp or saggy is, by definition, not straight.

I see nothing but straight fries in that picture.

You're welcome to load up MS Paint and circle the fries that aren't straight.

Oh that's right, you can't, because you're a lying troll.

Gotta give you credit though, you at least made me reply.

Or they may be french fries cooked in oil, with a small amount of oil still very slightly shining due to the fact that something was just cooked in oil. You're just reaching to defend the actual limp sog excuse of french fries that your entire continent serves to people for some dumbass reason that I'm sure you'll insist has to do with how perfect they are and not just general combativeness because you suck at something more than the US does.

How about the one in the very middle of the picture, the one going left to right? Or do you seriously think that the fry intersecting with its center is providing enough structural support to make up for this phantom "limpness" of yours?

You eat oversized mcdonalds fries. I can get better fries from at least 400 places in my city than you can in your entire continent.

And you're too moronic and ill-prideful to look up a recipe for "double fried french fries" instead of posturing like a moron and eating your thin skinned sacks of potato you obnoxiously insist are remotely acceptable.

I thought you might do that, so: describe exactly how they are limp. If you just say "they're limp" you forfeit the whole argument and I win. I want details on the visual evidence in the picture and you can't say "well they'd be limp if they weren't being supported" because that's faulty logic.

Go on.

Yep!

I win.

The fries lack the visual cues of actually crunchy fries. There is no gloss and translusence of a crispy outer shell evident in the photo, the fries are matte, and where there is a shine, it comes from the oil rather than the glassy starch that develops to create a thick, crunchy shell that is the hallmark of good fries. The fries in the photo might not bend like cooked noodles, but it doesn't mean they aren't limp. Good fries, they are not.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 2 08:34:01 2013 No.4766555 >>4766532 Sure, they aren't as limp as wet paper but you can tell they are limp. The way the centre of the chips are wrinkled and almost twisted-like shows that these are shit-tier chips.

>not glorious crinkle cut homegrown Yukon Gold®™

>>4766321
I'm seconding this statement.

Most people haven't have more than 2 types of potatoes in their entire lives. Either the small, common, nearly tasteless, red skinned kind or sorta tasteless russets.

One of the best potatoes you can often find in stores is the more expensive Yukon Gold®™. It has golden flesh and is fucking packed with flavor. Switching from eating Yukon Gold®™ to eating Russets is like going from hot sex to cold-shower masturbation.

With Yukon Gold®™ potatoes, you don't need seasoning, but if you do put salt on them they are even more godly.

>>4766288
In the googled image you posted, the fries have salt on them. You can see the little salt cubes all over them.

>Truly good French fries need no salt.
If they were infused with salt during the soaking or pre-cooking phase then yeah, no *more* salt is needed.

If your premise is that fries need no salt at all then it's false, your unsalted fries must go well with the bitter taste of failure?
