Transcripts

00:00

it's the one thing that almost every

00:01

fast food restaurant has they may not

00:02

have burgers or chicken sandwiches but

00:04

they have fries and everyone can eat

00:06

them it's the one thing that unites us

00:07

all and it's so simple even with fast

00:09

food restaurants constantly fighting for

00:11

your money your attention with their

00:12

next Frankenstein creation the French

00:14

fry has remained untouched and unchanged

00:17

now despite the Affinity many of us

00:18

share with french fries there's one

00:20

question that divides us all that we

00:21

have to answer which fast food

00:23

restaurant has the best french fry in

00:25

America so that's why I'll be eating and

00:27

ranking fries at all of the biggest fast

00:29

food restaurant chains in America to

00:31

answer that question now for a fast food

00:33

spot to be considered in this

00:34

competition we have two rules number one

00:36

it must have over 300 locations which

00:39

leads me to number two cannot be a

00:40

regional restaurant it must be a

00:41

nationally recognized fast food chain

00:43

and I'm joined by Christian yet again je

00:45

and col producer of the burger show we

00:47

will be rating these on a scale of 1 to

00:49

10 based on three things flavor texture

00:51

and salt level so let's begin with

00:53

probably one of the most contentious

00:54

french fries in America all right we're

00:56

at in and out one of my favorite burger

00:58

places of all time how do we think their

00:59

Fries Are going to do not good

01:01

unfortunately but I do have a trick I

01:03

want to show you can I just get one

01:04

order of french fries just normal and

01:06

then another order of fries um well done

01:08

Inn out just has that Nostalgia man look

01:10

at these outfits look at how clean it is

01:12

in there look how organized it is look

01:14

at the quality of this receipt feel us

01:15

that's fine that's card stock I don't

01:17

even want to go anywhere I don't even

01:18

care if their fries or bad I'm just

01:20

happy to be here awesome thank you very

01:21

much it didn't even feel like 9 minutes

01:23

you know honestly I'm giving him the

01:25

pass and I'm sure people think oh he's

01:26

so biased I don't give I had a good time

01:28

where's the palm trees where's the palm

01:29

trees there they are there they are what

01:31

gets a high rating in flavor it's a nice

01:33

pure potatoey flavor no bitter oil

01:36

aftertaste which means the oil has not

01:38

been recycled which happens a lot in

01:39

fast food restaurants now what is a good

01:41

texture first off it should have nice

01:43

Snappy crisp crunch little to no SOG no

01:46

oily greasiness and the interior must be

01:48

fluffy but not dry and salt level you

01:50

could have the most perfect texture and

01:51

flavor but it is all lost at the salt

01:54

that it should be salted to the absolute

01:56

maximum as much salt as you could

01:57

possibly put on it without it actually

01:59

tasting just like salt now let's begin

02:01

one of my favorite places of all time

02:03

In-N-Out I know what you're thinking

02:04

Josh In-N-Out fries suck and they kind

02:07

of do but I am showing you a trick here

02:08

the key to a good In-N-Out fry is always

02:11

order them well done

02:12

why pause we will not enter the Well

02:15

Done fries in the competition because I

02:17

don't think it's a fair Advantage we

02:19

have to do specifically what you would

02:20

get if you just ordered fries and I'm

02:22

going to taste test and count just the

02:23

typical order of fries could be a little

02:26

saltier but I'm happy with where the

02:27

salt's at really fresh potato flavor

02:29

because they're literally cut them and

02:30

frying them this is probably the

02:31

freshest fry we will have all day now

02:33

we're going to address the problem they

02:34

are the softest least crunchy french fry

02:37

I think you can buy and that has always

02:39

been their problem that's a 90° I love

02:41

the salt on them today I love the fresh

02:42

potato taste texture not even there it's

02:44

not toothsome no Crisp that's a 4.3 on

02:47

the regular one below average the normal

02:49

version of the fries I'm going to give

02:50

them a four they're just not that good

02:52

and that's the rating that's get to go

02:53

in the competition but if we were going

02:54

to rate the Well Done version which is

02:55

the right way to order this would at

02:57

least be a 6.5 in- and- out is not going

02:59

to win the french fry game as much as I

03:01

love it but when you do go order them

03:02

well done moving on and the first spot

03:04

on the board in and out look I love you

03:06

is probably watching this right now

03:45

they're like the mother wish addess this

03:47

all right 1 2 three salt level is good

03:49

could be saltier but like I'm happy with

03:51

the salt level most places are

03:52

undersalted crunch not really there it's

03:55

just kind of soft it's stiff but not

03:56

crunchy I don't know I feel like out of

03:58

all the fries that we have to taste

03:59

today to me this is like maybe a 5.5 I

04:02

was say this is a solid six flat I'll

04:03

match that six and there it is our first

04:06

new leader honestly to be expected I

04:08

mean not that surprised by it so let's

04:09

move on to our next spot Water Burger I

04:12

hate this place I always have and I

04:14

always will waterg today can I just get

04:17

one large french fry thank you are you

04:19

guys ready for this to be the longest wa

04:20

for French fries that we've had today 7

04:22

minutes 40 seconds that's my guess I'm

04:24

going to guess 8 minutes and 30 seconds

04:26

awesome thank you very much appreciate

04:27

it new record you know maybe we talk too

04:30

much that's what it is I'm not going to

04:31

lie this presentation is the best french

04:33

fry presentation I have seen today so I

04:35

will give you that shout out water bger

04:37

good God damn we need to bring like a

04:40

bow and arrow with

04:41

us that's some crunch on there no

04:45

salt look look look you can see the salt

04:47

on this one let me know if it's enough

04:49

oh that was nice flavor-wise I'm not

04:51

picking up a ton of potato they're

04:52

really really really muted in flavor

04:55

salt level not great you get a salty one

04:57

here and there but for the most part

04:58

they're all relatively almost borderline

05:00

unseasoned but texturally these are kind

05:02

of like the Hallmark french fries

05:03

they're just kind of what you expect

05:04

they're really dry and crisp on the

05:07

outside and powdery on the inside in

05:09

comparison to some of the other fries

05:10

I'd give this a six and a half it's

05:11

definitely above mid it's hard right

05:13

because like the flavor really brings it

05:15

down but the texture brings it back up

05:17

on the scale I'm thinking about like

05:18

what I eat like a hand like a good

05:20

amount of these it's got enough salt for

05:21

me to do that I'm going to say so 6.7

05:23

good job waterb not bad moving on an

05:25

immediate new leader not too bad for one

05:27

of my least favorite spots but I don't

05:29

expect this being in first place for

05:30

much longer moving on to the next all

05:32

right we're back at Zach be's can I get

05:34

a large french

05:36

fry yes sir thank you very much they

05:38

almost hit seven we had the exact same

05:40

problem last time when we went to ZX

05:41

right I think they took a long time last

05:43

time can we get a quick rewind check

05:45

we're still next to a Highway by the way

05:46

the Zach Beast fry is a crinkle cut

05:48

season fry I will say the thickness of

05:50

them is causing quite a lot of

05:51

flaccidity I like that they're season

05:53

but there's definitely like a flavor in

05:55

there that I do not like no you think

05:56

it's the oil so flavor is weird salt

05:58

levels are good crispiness

06:00

I don't know the texture I get when I

06:01

eat this is like I bite into it I hear a

06:03

little crack but not a crunch and then

06:05

it's chewy and then it's immediately

06:07

just like mashed potato I usually like

06:08

crinkle cut fries these are some of the

06:10

worst I've ever had I'm going to give it

06:11

a four 4.3 all right Zach be nice try

06:14

the chicken's great fries a four and our

06:15

first tie honestly this kind of makes

06:17

sense being on par within and out moving

06:19

on to our next Contender guess where we

06:21

went hi can I just get an order of a

06:23

large fry thank you window thank you

06:24

it's crazy how Burger King always smells

06:26

exactly the same we'll share it Burger

06:28

King here we go

06:30

no salt right off the bat W it's

06:32

seasoned but it's not these used to be

06:34

amazing texture not crunchy taste potato

06:37

seasoning non-existent I'm starting to

06:38

get annoyed okay I've eaten a lot of

06:40

french fries today and I'm on a diet I

06:42

still got to eat 180 gr of protein today

06:44

give me a Gooding fry and I'm also fing

06:46

tired of people being like these like

06:47

fast food teenage workers that are

06:49

underpaid it's not about them it's about

06:51

the billions of dollars that this

06:53

company is generating and they cannot

06:55

standardize the way that they make their

06:57

fing french fries that's aing tube I was

06:59

going to say 2.2 moving on I'm shocked

07:02

BK came in with the worst fry of the day

07:04

so far I don't know how that's possible

07:06

onto the next spot Jack in the Box hi

07:08

can I just do one order of seasoned

07:10

curly fries a medium and a medium french

07:12

fry as well thank you she gave you your

07:14

fries before your card yeah I almost

07:15

drove off without my I saw that we're

07:17

exactly where you would expect the Jack

07:19

in the Box to be right by a major

07:21

highway so it might be a little loud

07:23

Jack and the MOX has two fries they're

07:25

known for their curly fries but they

07:26

also have regular french fries so we're

07:27

going to taste test both depending on

07:29

which one is better that will be the one

07:30

that we end up pitting against the rest

07:31

of the fries let's taste it's actually

07:34

not bad that's good crisp curly all

07:36

right cheers here's the thing it almost

07:38

feels like an unfair Advantage with the

07:39

curly fry But ultimately this is about

07:41

salt crunch flavor so curly is easily

07:44

the better one crunch good God that's

07:46

like one of the best crunches we've had

07:47

all day is it's seasoned but you don't

07:49

lose the flavor of like the toasted

07:50

roasted potato salt levels perfect the

07:52

curly is like probably I'm going to give

07:54

it an eight I was going to give it an

07:56

eight and then the French fry it's

07:58

actually not bad it's one of the better

07:59

ones that we've had today I would give a

08:00

regular french fry a 6.7 yeah I'd give

08:03

it a six just because the flavor of the

08:05

potato seems like non-existent regular

08:07

fries a six curly fries and eight not

08:10

bad Jack in the Box moving on a shocking

08:12

new leader with Jack In The Box and a

08:14

great curly fry coming in this early

08:16

with a number that high is going to be

08:17

hard to beat Next Up Shake Shack hi uh

08:20

can I just get a medium or a large

08:22

french fry thank you oh these smell good

08:24

these are

08:25

gbd seeing visual representation of the

08:28

salt on the fry you know it's seasoned

08:30

enough oh you can hear that because of

08:32

the size these you get a lot of that

08:34

creamy fluffy potato on the inside but

08:36

you still have all the crunch you want

08:37

because of the crinkle cut so you get

08:39

lots of crunch you get lots of fluff

08:40

texturally it's almost perfect salt

08:42

levels almost perfect it's seasoned just

08:44

about to the max I think you could go a

08:45

little more if I wanted to be really

08:46

nitpicky but I'm pretty happy about it

08:48

he's running away the crazy thing is the

08:51

initial flavor is like

08:54

the that's what a Ford Focus sounds like

08:56

when you straight pipe it I just want

08:57

you to know it doesn't sound good Ford

08:59

Fest this has the iconic french fry

09:01

flavor that I want but there's a problem

09:03

and you know what that problem is

09:04

towards the end you get that bitterness

09:06

and you know why old fryer oil

09:08

everything said that's a 7.7 even with

09:10

the bitter fry oil I'm going to give

09:11

this a solid 7.5 moving on you know we

09:14

love shake shake around here they were

09:15

so close to Greatness and being our

09:17

potential new leader but old fry oil

09:19

drags it down to second place next up

09:21

Arby's the giant boot what isn't it like

09:24

a giant hat hat whatever the it is why

09:26

is it a hat anyway can I get one large

09:28

order of crinkle fries one large order

09:30

of curly I hope their fries are better

09:31

than their Waggy Burgers wag poo burgers

09:34

thank you very much this is another

09:35

place that has two different kinds of

09:36

fries they're curly fries are the most

09:37

iconic but they also have crinkle cut

09:39

we'll taste both whichever one is the

09:40

better one will be the one that we judge

09:41

for the leaderboard oh hot they don't

09:44

have any salt of them no they're not I'm

09:46

not even finishing that that's horrible

09:47

that is the worst fry we've had today it

09:49

sucks because the crunch is incredible

09:50

literally no flavor it tastes like I'm

09:52

eating crispy oil now the curly for the

09:54

sake of the statement the curly fries

09:56

are better so we'll judge these crunch

09:57

is great the salt levels are a little

09:59

little better but it's still lacking

10:00

salt it's crazy cuz they're battered all

10:02

they have to do is season the batter

10:03

properly no potato flavor crunch is

10:05

there flavor is lacking it's kind of dry

10:07

preseason but still UND Seasons at the

10:09

same time it's a mid- french fry I would

10:10

say 5.5 it's a five moving on a shocking

10:13

result with ARB solidifying as a mid fry

10:16

hence being in the middle of the

10:17

leaderboard onto our next stop Culver

10:19

which has honestly been a frequent

10:20

disappointment so hopefully they step it

10:22

up this place is more known for its

10:23

cheese curds than fries so I'm hesitant

10:26

to say this will do well for them damn

10:28

how old is that but it's so so faded it

10:30

almost looks black and white they

10:31

probably printed that out in like 1952

10:33

hi uh can I just get a large french fry

10:35

and that's it thank you all right we got

10:37

the bag we forgot to record the time

10:38

oopsy doopsy but it was pretty fast I

10:39

would say like somewhere around 2 to 3

10:41

minutes and this is like feels Hefty in

10:43

this bag there's not space taken up by

10:44

carboard you like to take a little fry

10:46

feel that you like feeling my back

10:49

cheers that was disgusting it had like a

10:51

really taste you probably got a weird

10:53

fry yeah that one tastes fine why first

10:54

of all crunch I want more crunch but I'm

10:56

not unhappy with the crunch the inside

10:58

is nice creamy mashed potato like salt

11:00

levels pretty good it's almost where I

11:02

want it and flavor it's nice you know

11:03

you got that weird fry but I'm picking

11:05

up potato flavor which I like it's very

11:07

simple it's a 6.2 the texture is great

11:09

it's really fluffy it's above average on

11:11

the salt like first thing that touches

11:12

my mouth is potato then salt it is above

11:14

average overall 5.8 Culver just

11:16

constantly kind of disappoints us so

11:18

this is kind of a oneup for them good

11:19

job moving on all right Culver not

11:21

terrible now for the next we're

11:22

splitting this up here Christian will be

11:24

our representative in La while I travel

11:25

to New York here we are at the habits in

11:28

La cuz there's n near Josh I'm expecting

11:30

this french fry to be like a solid 6.0

11:33

either can I get a side of fries okay

11:35

407 so I only ordered fries cuz sweet

11:38

potato fries it's not even a real potato

11:39

are sweet potatoes good though I mean

11:41

there are some hitters that could be

11:42

another video thank you so much all

11:44

right here we are at the Habit this one

11:45

looks good right off the bat it's kind

11:47

of bitter but it's really it's nicely

11:49

salted I'm not really digging the flavor

11:50

it's a little soggy no that was a good

11:52

one that was a good one so overall

11:54

texture it's enjoyable it could be a

11:55

little bit crispier saltiness is about

11:57

70% there could be better I'm going to

11:58

give this a I mean it's it's a mid fry

12:00

honestly there's nothing exciting about

12:02

this this is going to be a 5.5 on to the

12:04

next one wow it's about as mid as mid

12:06

gets it's like Habit Burger and Arby's

12:07

are having a little mid off but we're

12:09

not done yet on to the next LA stop Dell

12:11

Taco I didn't even know they had fries

12:13

ooh jumbo shrimp kind of fast food place

12:16

to sell shrimp hey there can I get a

12:17

large fry please all right thank you a

12:20

solid french fry has to at least take 2

12:22

minutes anything faster than that it's

12:24

half ass smells good oh sh let's go oh

12:27

that was a sleeper this is nice and

12:29

salty 80% of the salt maybe even 90% of

12:31

the salt levels is where I want it to be

12:33

texture it looks crispy but it's not

12:36

we're moving cuz a lawn mower

12:38

but still not crispy saltiness I love it

12:40

but potato flavor is way better it's not

12:42

as bitter as I thought it'd be let me

12:43

give this a 6.3 on to the next one all

12:45

right Christian wa high score on Del

12:47

Taco I'm a little confused but they

12:49

still didn't take the lead now we're

12:50

going to switch up to New York where

12:51

it's time for my most favorite beloved

12:54

spot in the whole world we're back at

12:56

the worst fast food restaurant on planet

12:58

fing Earth the first thing I got when I

13:00

open the door immediately guy burps and

13:02

farts and I'm like awesome we are

13:04

definitely at White Castle these

13:07

fries here this one's not too floppy

13:10

here we go somehow these don't taste

13:11

like anything I'm not even joking this

13:13

literally doesn't taste like anything at

13:15

all they don't isn't that weird I can't

13:18

even taste salt I can't taste potato I

13:20

taste nothing I'm like impressed that

13:22

they were able to figure out I don't

13:23

even know how to do this the crunch is

13:24

almost non-existent flavor you could put

13:27

a million pounds of salt on this and it

13:28

still won't taste like anything it's

13:30

just like water this is by far the worst

13:32

french fry I have ever had in my entire

13:34

life this gets a zero not even a one

13:37

we've tried almost everything at White

13:38

Castle for multiple kinds of videos but

13:40

it has failed miserably every single

13:42

time and I'm proud and glad to say that

13:45

this may be the very last time that I

13:46

ever have to come here again unless it's

13:48

like against my will moving on White

13:50

Castle Jesus dude bottom of the barrel

13:52

as usual let's go to Christian for one

13:54

final La taste pulling up at rallies

13:57

feeling good about rallies I don't know

13:59

why I just feel it hey there can I get a

14:01

large fries anything else your r's got

14:04

the AI thank you so much 2 minutes and

14:06

21

14:09

seconds smells like fear I mean not

14:11

going to lie these look good they also

14:12

look really greasy let's give it a shot

14:15

that's not bad at all it's the best

14:16

crunch I've had all day it's seasoned

14:17

it's got good flavor it's got a good

14:19

texture it's a little greasy I do like

14:20

the little texture bits on there given

14:22

it's great texture weak on the seasoning

14:24

but great on the flavor this is a 7.8

14:26

thank you rallies wow a big rebound off

14:29

the previous tasting with rallies coming

14:30

in at second place but we still haven't

14:33

seen Jack in the Box get taken down yet

14:35

I've got my fingers crossed so we move

14:37

on Jolly Bee Jolly Jolly Jolly

14:41

Be of the famous chicken Jo hi uh can I

14:44

14:57

of Filipinos that is also good to meet

14:59

you brother he's hey throw that away to

15:01

get some new fries thank you guys 4

15:02

minutes and 42 seconds we're back at one

15:04

of my favorite fast food places in the

15:06

world if not my most favorite jollybee I

15:08

will say their burger did disappoint a

15:10

little bit full honesty these fries on

15:12

the other hand look very good there's

15:14

some underlining seasoning in there the

15:16

inside of the fries season there might

15:17

even be a little MSG in there I don't

15:19

even know there's a little twang a

15:20

little meatiness to it but what I love

15:21

is they're not just covering these hot

15:23

fries and salt these are like brind or

15:25

something the fry from Edge to the

15:26

middle of it is seasoned basically

15:28

perfect you can taste the potato it

15:30

doesn't taste old it tastes fresh here's

15:32

the best part no oil flavor no

15:33

bitterness even the Soggy one like it's

15:35

still stick yeah every single fry is

15:37

crisp I think they could be crispier but

15:39

I'm not unhappy with where they are the

15:41

outside's got like a nice immediate

15:43

crunch little bit of chew on the outside

15:44

the inside's like puree a little creamy

15:47

a little bit pillowy oh God I want to

15:49

keep eating these so bad I'm going to

15:50

give this a solid strong standing eight

15:53

in the straight cut potato world this

15:54

reminds me back when Burger King and

15:56

McDonald's were primed I want to say 8.3

15:58

jollybee always coming through baby

16:00

moving on and we have a new leader

16:02

jollybee thank you we really needed this

16:04

by the way Jolly Be if you're watching

16:05

please let me franchise a jollybee in

16:08

Austin Texas I dm'd you and you said

16:10

maybe I would love to do it now moving

16:12

on to our next spot Wendy's there's a

16:14

strong chance Wendy's could come in with

16:15

the upset hi can I get a large order of

16:17

fries you said a large french fries uh

16:19

yes anything else nope that's it told

16:22

the window you said fries you said Fri

16:24

holy there's going to be some floppers

16:26

in there some

16:27

floppers that's smells putrifying yeah

16:31

it's like fried fish these are

16:33

definitely double fried the crisp is is

16:35

good though bitter as aftertaste that

16:37

was cold that fry was just sitting on

16:39

the side and she like scooted it in

16:40

there and put it in the bag there's not

16:41

enough salt on this at all usually their

16:42

fries are salted better than this I'm

16:44

not getting a lot of potato flavor I'm

16:45

getting a lot of burnt oil it's so burnt

16:47

that it's almost got a spiciness in the

16:49

back of my throat yeah it's like rotten

16:50

in it's kind of honestly that fres

16:52

is a 2.5 it almost has like a plasticky

16:54

taste to it yeah these are not good but

16:55

they are crisp I'll give them more of

16:57

like a four their bottom the barrel if I

16:59

got them I'd eat them I wouldn't be

17:01

super happy with them they're below

17:02

average not very good one of these I

17:04

expected better your Baconator did far

17:06

better than this moving

17:07

on hi can I just get a large french fry

17:10

and that's it this is the one we went to

17:11

last time where that other guy was like

17:12

randomly pissed off do you remember that

17:14

sorry what sandwich okay I'm regular

17:17

spicy thank you very much what 47

17:19

seconds that was remarkably fast we have

17:21

their fries crinkle cut they look crisp

17:23

but I'm not sure if they are they smell

17:25

old this smells like this oil hasn't

17:27

been changed out for several days which

17:28

typically when you are constantly

17:30

cooking fried chicken and fried stuff

17:31

over and over and over in oil and then

17:33

it burns at the bottom and permeates

17:35

through the oil and then you cool it

17:36

down and then the next day you use the

17:37

oil again and the next day you use the

17:39

oil again that oil is just like becoming

17:41

carcinogenic and burnt and stinky and

17:44

that's what this smells like frally not

17:46

bad actually hang on now that burnt oil

17:48

is coming through oh I don't like that

17:49

taste damn these could have been so good

17:51

you sort of get like this meaty Umami

17:53

potatoey flavor and then immediately

17:55

burnt oil it like perfumes your mouth

17:57

and comes out your nose starts good ends

18:00

bad but it's got that mashed potato

18:01

interior which I do like it's like an

18:02

okay fry if I got this I'd probably eat

18:04

it it's below mid it's a 4.5 it just has

18:07

like a tough texture for me but I do

18:08

like the interior on this one it's

18:10

definitely the oil it's giving it like a

18:11

bitter taste I agree below average 4.3

18:13

for me that's fair moving on yeah

18:15

there's a reason it's called Church's

18:16

Chicken and not Church's fries onto our

18:18

next stop one of the more surprising

18:20

great fast food burgers in America steak

18:22

and shake Steak and Shake was the winner

18:24

of the burger competition and rightfully

18:26

deserve I hope more people went to steak

18:28

and shake after that cuz I had never

18:29

been really and I was very happy with my

18:31

choice the fries look good I don't see

18:33

visible

18:34

salt there's no salt on it salt would

18:36

help so much here texturally I'm just

18:38

missing the crunch that I want it's like

18:40

crispy but it's not crunchy and the

18:42

worst part of all the flavor they taste

18:44

kind of good and then boom there's that

18:45

bitterness I don't know I'm going to

18:46

have to give these a flat six I think

18:48

it's below mid I'm go 4.5 maybe I just

18:50

feel good about Steak and Shake I would

18:52

say it's fair to call it mid so moving

18:54

on another tie I've said it before I'll

18:56

say it again a little salt goes a long

18:58

way so sorry Steak and Shake we still

18:59

love you moving on to mojangles next

19:02

level Southern

19:04

flavor hi can I just get a large french

19:06

fry and that's it yeah it's clean in

19:07

there you see the way you swivel that

19:09

scooper oh they look good from far I'm

19:11

excited thank you very much under two

19:14

fresh fries these fries look good

19:16

they've kind of got like a hand cut

19:17

quality to them they're not perfect it's

19:19

like an appealing look like I want to

19:20

eat it last time I was here I bit the

19:22

out of my tongue these are good the

19:24

seasoning is not overwhelming you

19:25

immediately get that really pure potato

19:27

flavor and it is a fresh fresh potato

19:29

I'm even picking up a little bit of

19:30

sweetness from the potato itself salty

19:32

Umami a little bit of spiciness this is

19:34

the best seasoned fry we pad I think

19:36

this is the best seasoned fry I have

19:37

ever had it's as good as a seasoned

19:39

curly fry but better the crunch is there

19:41

but it could be crunchier and I think it

19:43

has to do with the shape I think the

19:44

shape puts them a bit at a disadvantage

19:46

I'm a fan of the shape it's thin so it

19:47

gets that crisp but it's like wide so

19:49

you get potato I'm going to give this

19:50

8.2 I was thinking a 7.5 this one I just

19:53

had is actually way better than the

19:54

first

19:55

oh do that suck on it that's a seasoned

20:00

right there oh I can't get this an eight

20:03

I really need that texture but the

20:05

flavor is so good that it makes up for

20:06

the lack of texture that I'm not getting

20:08

out of this Ry so I'm still going to

20:09

give it a 7 and a half which I think is

20:10

very polite moving on and a new

20:12

restaurant steps on the fast food podium

20:14

in third place Bo angles surprisingly

20:16

welld deserved moving on to our next

20:17

spot we're at Sonic you pull into the

20:19

little thing and you order through the

20:20

damn thing pull into a closer stall you

20:22

said oh okay sure we pulled up to the

20:25

thing and we pressed the button we

20:26

waited for I don't know how many minutes

20:28

and then she basically was like please

20:30

move to a stall that's closer and we

20:31

were like we'll just go through the

20:32

drivethru so we still have the timer

20:33

running can I get for you today can I

20:35

just do one large order of french fries

20:36

and that's it I do not like Sonic but

20:39

we're

20:40

here I mean right out the gate it's a

20:42

very basic fry salt levels are actually

20:44

surprisingly not bad acceptable salt

20:46

it's not like maxed out crunch 50%

20:48

capacity flavor I'm not picking up any

20:50

potato they just taste like old potato

20:52

first one I had was good it was nicely

20:53

seasoned 50% of these are floppy but not

20:55

this one there's a slight crunch I

20:57

heavily taste potato but not like in a

20:58

good one way and season what say this a

21:00

5.7 yeah I mean look if you don't really

21:02

want to think about the fry that you're

21:03

getting and just eat something to shovel

21:04

in your mouth without thinking it's mid

21:05

it's not that bad it's a five moving on

21:07

you know I love Sonic for their ice

21:08

machines and that's about it so they're

21:10

edging out with Arby's in the mid off at

21:12

our new number 10 spot is there anything

21:14

that can beat the Jolly Bee fry surely

21:16

there are because we have some big dogs

21:18

coming up moving next to racing canes we

21:21

got another crinkle cut the chicken

21:22

places really like crinkle cut fries

21:24

that's what I'm noticing can I just do a

21:25

a large fry good thank you very much

21:27

holy 25 seconds that'll find the spot

21:30

Wolverine now yeah all right here we go

21:33

cheers they did not salt these it tastes

21:35

like Styrofoam well that's probably cuz

21:37

there's a bunch of melted styrofoam

21:38

right there you see that we're eating

21:39

that I'm not even going to worry about

21:40

that I'm not picking up much flavor cuz

21:41

there's no salt I don't even taste a

21:42

potato but at least the oil isn't bitter

21:44

it's not the worst crunch we've had all

21:45

things considered it's not necessarily

21:47

bad tasting but it's missing a lot of

21:49

the elements that we need so I'm going

21:50

to give it like a three I do like their

21:51

texture it's just super lackluster I

21:53

could say 3.7 moving on oh God another

21:56

bottom tier fry canes comes in at 14th

21:58

Place moving on to another spot that has

21:59

a good chance A&W this is an underrated

22:02

one back to the A&W that smells like

22:04

fish because it is combined with a Long

22:06

John Silvers can I actually just get a

22:08

large order of fries and that's it thank

22:10

you all right we got the bag let's taste

22:12

we're back at A&W one of the most

22:14

clapped fast food restaurants in America

22:16

but I will say the last time we were

22:17

here we were surprised by their sandwich

22:19

hopefully we'll be surprised by their

22:20

fries something nostalgic about this one

22:23

I want this with chicken tenders or some

22:24

sh I feel like a little kid I feel like

22:25

going bowling right now this is a

22:27

different kind of fry it's not exactly

22:28

the style of fry that I'm looking for

22:30

crunch it's good it's there it's crisp I

22:32

will say the border of crust is a little

22:34

too thin for me I want it to be thicker

22:36

there's a ton of flavor in these fries

22:38

you can taste the roasted potato and all

22:39

that which is great the salt level is at

22:41

maybe 50% of what it could be there's a

22:43

lot of potato inside there very mashed

22:45

potato texture out of the ones that I

22:46

rated at six I think this is a seven I

22:48

don't think it's up there at 7 just

22:50

because there's like there's a lot of

22:51

better fries out there I want it to be

22:53

more crispy and more salty I'm going

22:55

give a 6.9 that's pretty good good job

22:57

A&W you know honestly I think that puts

22:58

them somewhere in the leaderboard pretty

23:00

close up to the top we'll see who goes

23:01

next moving on you know I expected

23:03

higher but still in the top six A&W a

23:06

welcome surprise moving on to Five Guys

23:09

okay we're in the car for this one it is

23:11

now raining we have both their fries

23:13

they're known for their iconic cajun

23:14

fries a lot of people like to talk about

23:16

them they smell amazing I mean like

23:18

we're going to compare the two pick the

23:20

better one and that will enter the

23:21

competition starting off with Mr salt

23:24

only just as bad as I remember I will

23:26

say the salt level very nice text not

23:29

there yeah there wasn't really a crunch

23:30

and the flavor is nice really good

23:32

flavor fresh potato it's no bull now

23:34

let's try this one it's not crunchy it's

23:37

definitely flavorful flavor and salt

23:39

level is really good but the texture is

23:41

so low on the scale that it's dragging

23:43

their score all the way down I do like

23:45

that one better like that's more

23:46

balanced than this okay so we're rating

23:48

the salt one just to be extra Fair it's

23:50

got a great potato flavor texture really

23:52

lacking I would say this is 5.2 four

23:56

those are our opinions we're moving on

23:58

woo Five Guys didn't even make the

23:59

little mid off over there all right

24:01

moving on to another big boy potentially

24:03

in the fry game we're at popey hi can I

24:05

just get a large order of fries and

24:07

that's it you can buy a one gallon

24:08

beverage from here that's crazy we got

24:10

the Popeye's fries they're battered I'm

24:13

struggling to find a crispy fry these

24:14

are the crispiest ones I could find so

24:16

here we go cheers it's like good and not

24:19

good at the same time like the good part

24:20

is it almost tastes like fried chicken

24:22

skin almost too bad we're eating french

24:24

fries and not fried chicken skin texture

24:26

the second you bite it you're greeted

24:27

with a beautiful crisp CR but upon your

24:29

second shoe you realize that was all a

24:30

lie and it immediately becomes chewy the

24:32

inside does have a nice moist mashed

24:34

potato interior which I like but it's

24:35

greasy flavor is awesome these are some

24:38

of the best tasting fries I've ever had

24:39

it's salty it's got Umami clearly these

24:41

are fried in the same oil as the chicken

24:43

and it has a fried chicken flavor I

24:45

think you'd take maybe a hint more salt

24:46

all things considered the texture is

24:48

bringing it down but like a fry is so

24:50

much about the texture look at my six

24:52

it's got great flavor and that's what's

24:53

sticking to me right now but it is

24:55

really greasy even seven all right

24:57

that's fair maybe I'm a little bit mean

24:58

on this one so we're moving on you know

25:00

I expected better from Popeyes so let's

25:02

bring in a heavyweight Contender

25:03

Chick-fil-A and of course there's

25:05

483,000 people there hello how are you

25:08

doing we're just going to do uh one

25:10

order of fries is that everything today

25:12

yes it is thank you very much not bad

25:13

for a long ass line though the waffle

25:15

fry fried fresh seconds ago I've always

25:17

found this to be a lot of potatoes

25:18

smells like nothing that's sad cheers oh

25:22

hot it's all right salt levels are

25:24

actually better than they usually are I

25:25

will say they've always been very good

25:27

about potato flavor but but the crunch

25:29

is very lackluster if any at all it's

25:31

very pillowy but it's not a french fry

25:33

texture was whack texture is at the

25:34

bottom floor for me personally like this

25:36

fry I don't know to me this feels like a

25:38

five fry shouldn't need sauce but this

25:39

needs sauce would give this a 4.7

25:41

exactly what I thought look I know a lot

25:43

of people love these but on a

25:44

competition for the best fast food

25:45

french fry we need to see something

25:47

special and we got a couple choices that

25:49

might just get that that being said our

25:50

next one doesn't have a likely chance

25:52

because it's Dairy Queen I'm nervous

25:54

it's actually kind of amazing how long

25:55

DQ's been in business hi can I just get

25:58

one large order of french fries and

26:00

that's it 440 calories for a large

26:02

french fry why do they have dog treats

26:04

in the window of the restaurant and that

26:06

F water look at that now you know what I

26:08

think it's funny I know people are going

26:09

to see this and they're going to go oh

26:11

come on what do you expected to DQ I

26:13

expect like human decency that's gross

26:15

it just shows disrespect to like the

26:17

people that are about to eat that is

26:18

gross to me culturally unacceptable do

26:20

you want someone to wash their hands

26:21

before they cook your food of course

26:23

should be ashamed thank you oh they gave

26:26

out pup cups a yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

26:29

that makes a little bit more sense we

26:30

went on this whole R really did we got

26:33

the fries holy

26:37

hot wow that's actually really good I

26:40

think this is the hottest fry we've

26:41

tasted like that's the freshest fried

26:43

fry so salt levels almost perfect if not

26:45

perfect flavor really clean super clean

26:47

no bitterness I mean I just taste potato

26:49

and salt I'm Blown Away same wow you're

26:51

greeted with a nice pop of crispy crunch

26:54

it continues to Crunch as you're chewing

26:56

which then melts away to the fluffy p

26:58

interior this is kind of fry I've been

27:00

looking for me this is top tier basic

27:01

fry this is an

27:04

8.5 wow that puts DQ in the leaderboard

27:08

it deserves that score let's move on an

27:10

unexpected new leader what is happening

27:13

arguably the biggest french fry upset I

27:16

have never had a good thing at Dairy

27:17

Queen before until today now the

27:19

question remains is Dairy Queen going to

27:21

become our number one french fry or can

27:23

someone please top them all right we're

27:25

at Freddy's Frozen Custard hi can I just

27:27

get a large order of french fries and

27:29

that's it it'll be $3.99 at the window

27:31

thank you did you want any like fries or

27:33

anything you mean ketchup yeah no like

27:35

fries sauce yeah that'd be great thank

27:36

you you want some fries that's what we

27:37

got leave her alone bro she's probably

27:39

tired thank you so much appreciate it

27:41

wow so I've had my opinions about

27:43

Freddy's french fries super thin these

27:45

are the thinnest fries we've had the

27:46

first fries that we've seen pepper like

27:48

physically on it although this is

27:49

definitely pre-ground pepper they smell

27:51

different it smells like you're at a

27:53

steakhouse flavor very nice super potaty

27:56

roasted french fry flavor salt levels I

27:58

would say almost perfect it's missing a

28:00

little bit of salt but I like this

28:02

seasoning so much I want it crispy salty

28:04

fatty and I'm getting that with this I

28:06

love a thin french fry I've said this

28:07

before and I'll say it again they've got

28:09

the perfect amount of like a thin wispy

28:11

crunch on the outside and then there's a

28:13

little bit of fluff on the inside would

28:14

I want a little bit more potato fluff I

28:16

don't know I'm kind of more about the

28:17

crunch anyways I get a lot of crunch but

28:19

it's also like teey kind of crunch like

28:21

it's tooth some chewy I'm just going to

28:23

say that I'm going to give these an 8.7

28:24

I'm giving these an 8.7 I'm giving these

28:26

an 8.7 I'm sorry they're really good

28:28

these are the kind of fries I like do

28:30

you ever eat a fry one at a time like

28:31

this I want to grab like two to four

28:33

dunk them in an aoli and shove them in

28:35

my mouth and these are perfect for that

28:37

best tasting fry so far potato flavor is

28:39

great texture not my favorite but it's

28:42

up there because it's boosted by the

28:44

flavor it's boosted by The Taste I want

28:46

to say it's an 8.4 who would have known

28:48

one of the most disappointing fast food

28:50

places I think I have ever been to might

28:52

very well have the best french fry and

28:54

boom Another new leader with a very

28:57

tough score to beat at 8.55 Freddy's

29:00

takes the spot at this stage I don't

29:02

even know what to expect we might have

29:04

even another number one moving on to

29:06

Carl Jor I used to go here all the time

29:09

when I was a morbidly obese kid can I

29:11

just get a large normal french fry and a

29:13

large waffle fry thank you not going to

29:16

lie that was pretty awkward she's like

29:17

stared at you hello yet again we have

29:20

two different fries to choose from we're

29:21

going to taste them both decide which is

29:22

better and that will be the one

29:23

considered for the competition I'm not

29:25

going to lie the waffle fries look

29:26

insane

29:28

these fries look good but honestly just

29:30

without even tasting these if someone

29:31

put these in front of me they're like

29:32

pick one I would not even look at this

29:34

so I think we should start with this one

29:36

I don't even want to try these but I'll

29:37

give them the benefit of the doubt well

29:39

hang on that's nice and seasoned though

29:41

I don't think one is better than the

29:42

other I see why they have two options

29:44

they're both good can they both enter

29:46

the competition I don't know if that's

29:47

fair ultimately we think this one is the

29:48

better one but we're going to rate them

29:49

both so you know where they both stand

29:51

starting with the regular fries it's

29:52

crisp it's a moist fluffy not a powdery

29:54

fluffy but not a greasy fluffy not a

29:56

greasy one either so the normal straight

29:58

cut fries I'm going to give seven I was

30:00

going to say 7.5 these wouldn't even win

30:02

the competition but they're really good

30:03

the waffle fries on the other hand

30:04

crunch insane salt levels they're at

30:07

about 85 maybe even 90% of where I want

30:10

them to be not 100 flavor Perfect 10 out

30:12

of 10 on flavor but I do have one

30:14

demarcation they're pretty oily that

30:15

said I'm going to give these a solid

30:16

standing 8.4 this is a great

30:18

8.6 dud I can't believe it cuz I really

30:21

do not like Carl Jr so Carl junr comes

30:23

in in a new second place on the fast

30:26

food fry Podium missing first repl by

30:28

just

30:29

05 points this is getting serious with

30:32

only two more spots to go there's still

30:34

a chance we have a new and final winner

30:36

next up with

30:39

KFC their numbers are wrong 3 four P

30:43

backwards

30:46

PFC hi can I just get a large french

30:50

fry okay great she made me pull up for

30:53

one order of french fries wait up here

30:55

yeah how is she going to give it to us

30:56

thank you very much appreciate that you

30:58

too wow I ordered a large fry I have to

31:00

point this out this thing is half full

31:02

these fries do look really good though

31:04

these look almost battered they look

31:06

seasoned wow we're going to start with

31:08

texture texture of taste Link in the

31:09

description the crunch is undeniable

31:11

it's so good the outside has a crispy

31:14

sort of like thin wispy batter Crunch

31:16

and then the interior is like exactly

31:18

like a mashed potato puree I would say

31:21

90% of where it needs to be texture

31:23

amazing The Taste the potato is buttery

31:26

it's seasoned I love that slight batter

31:28

on the outside Pros are outweighing any

31:30

negative I'm going for it I'm giving it

31:31

an

31:32

8.7 what bring back the fries it all

31:35

kind of comes down to Christian's vote

31:37

here because I almost feel like I rated

31:38

it too high but I really like these

31:40

fries that's got to be up there at an

31:46

eight8 KFC has the highest score does

31:48

that mean the KFC wins no it doesn't

31:51

because we have one more they're known

31:52

for their chicken but you know what now

31:54

the world knows that they are about

31:55

their fries too and with that they are

31:58

the new leader with only one more place

32:00

that could snatch the position away the

32:02

most globally recognized french fry in

32:05

the entire world the McDonald's french

32:07

fry wow I can't believe it we're really

32:09

going to find out who the winner is is

32:10

it going to be McDonald's I don't think

32:11

it's going to be but we've been

32:13

surprised several times on this how can

32:14

I help you can I just get one large

32:16

french fry and that's it 339 thank you

32:20

honestly just based on the how fast he

32:21

answered I feel like this is going to be

32:23

fast thank you very much 41 seconds

32:25

that's fastest the last time we were at

32:27

this McDonald's they gave me not only

32:28

the best thing I've ever had from

32:30

McDonald's but the best hamburger I've

32:31

ever had from McDonald's this place runs

32:33

a tight chip they're new and their

32:34

manager or whoever is running this place

32:35

is not around so these might be the best

32:37

version of a McDonald's fry that we

32:39

might get in the whole state let's dig

32:40

in

32:44

WoW probably looks like we're making a

32:46

only fans video out here you think you'd

32:48

be so tired of french fries but that

32:49

kind of gave you like a little boost of

32:50

life a little bit flavor nice roasty

32:52

toasty pure potato flavor it's got that

32:54

McDonald's taste but at the same time

32:56

kind of what you're looking for in a

32:57

fries it's become a nostalgic thing they

32:59

have clean oil so flavor is good potato

33:00

taste classic nostalgic salt amazing if

33:03

not the most through the tea perfect

33:05

amount of salt on McDonald's fries I've

33:07

ever had it's like right there dude I do

33:10

kind of wish that the inside was salted

33:11

just because there's so many places

33:13

we've been to where the inside of the

33:14

potato was salted but the outside is so

33:16

beautifully seasoned it balances itself

33:18

out so it works I put it in a 95% salt

33:20

and then texture I mean the outside is

33:22

crunchy it's dry and Aid as it should be

33:24

but the inside is Fluffy and moist but

33:26

it's a little drier on the inside more

33:28

powdery less moist texture for

33:30

McDonald's this is great the only

33:31

downfall on the texture is just the

33:33

inside's a little grainy versus super

33:34

smooth and mashed potato we I don't know

33:35

what you're going to say I'm going to

33:37

judge what I'm eating in front of me I

33:38

want to give a caveat that any other

33:39

McDonald's you were to go to you

33:41

probably will not get fries of this

33:42

quality cover your ears up I'm going to

33:43

give it an 8.3 all right Christian this

33:46

to me think about all the fries

33:48

everything that's out

33:51

[Music]

33:55

there 8.4 but the that means that the

33:58

winner today is officially KFC's french

34:01

fries and honestly only by a small

34:03

margin it's up to you to decide which

34:05

one you truly like we now have a laundry

34:06

list of at least a top five for you to

34:08

go to that are all really close that

34:10

have fantastic french fries I can't say

34:11

anything about the rest of their food

34:12

but if you want a good french fry now

34:13

you know where to go love you so much

34:14

subscribe goodbye
