Sweet potato fries are fucking amazing when they’re done right. Usually they’re overly mushy which I think is why they get so much hate, but they’re top tier when the cook knows what they’re doing.
Sweet Potato fries turn out way better than regular potato in an air fryer if you’re buying frozen ones to make at home.
I bought a spice grinder and made a spice mix for my sweet potato fries. Its a mix of salt, old bay, montreal steak seasoning and dried chilli flakes and its awesome.
Hard agree. The only issue is frozen sweet potato fries are way more expensive than regular. I try to make my own at home but can’t get the same crispness in the air fryer.
2, 3, 4, 6, 1, 7, 5.
Onion rings are either at the top or bottom of the list depending on the batch.
One is not like the others.
two are not like the others
Sweet Potato is at least a potato.
Potatoes are a member of the Nightshade family.
Sweet “Potatoes” are from the Morning Glory family.
Completely separate genus. Even though they can be mostly cooked and prepared similarly, they are not related.
They are cousins of the same order, Solanales
Is it? In that case, potatoes are apples by French standards. (Because it’s in the name.)
They are at least relatives.
They’re as closely related as a human and a lemur.
The Spanish just got confused between the names batata and papa and called them similar names. Yams are even further away from both sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Sweet potatoes are more potatoes than onions are potatoes.
What are yams though?
They’re fucking monocots, so way the hell removed (like onions). But none of these plants even share a family, order is the closest it gets.
Most of them pictured aren’t even French cut.
They’re all fried tubers. I’ll let it slide. The real travesty is no fried yuca on the list.
I don’t believe onions are tubers…
I had to look it up – allium
Damn. My b.
Fried finger food.
If we are rating the best type of fries then onion rings are last, being that they aren’t even potato.
Doesn’t say anything about potatoes.
Then I declare this debate invalid. Jalapeño poppers aren’t even on the list and they’re better than all of these.
Poppers are like appetisers, these to me are sides.

Assuming they onion rings are beer batter and the curly fries are from Arby’s.

8Where are you even getting curly or waffle fries from in this country? Feel like I’ve never seen them in my life.
Coles sells them, but its hit and miss if they’ve got them or not. I think aldi sells them as well.
Eh I’m English, all beige food is top tier!
Doesn’t matter, is potato. And onion rings. All are awesome.
2 - 6 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 8 - 5.

Ugh. People who call wedges “Jo-Jo’s” creep me out. It’s just so weird. Agreed about Crinkle fries though.
Is it the name or the people that creeps you out?
