    Yup.

    Maybe a little overseasoned, but something about the wing/fry combo...

    I've only had them once. I think if I had let myself salt them (they were completely unsalted) that I would have enjoyed them MUCH more. As they were, I only found them okay.

    Houston's fries are damn good. Barnaby's has some good ones also and if you want gastrointestinal problems - James Coney Island cheese fries are delicious.

    Where did you guys have fries for lunch this afternoon? I had Wendy's. Not bad. But I still prefer In-N-Out's. :)

    Did anybody see that part on the Supersize Me DVD where he put the McDonald's fries in the container and they never went bad? He put all this other food in different containers and all of it started growing mold, but the Mickey D's fries didn't change one bit...

    Now, all we have to to is find out what they put in the McDonald's fries that make them do that and we'll have the secret to eternal life...

    Best fries? ---> Fudruckers
    Are those huge things even considered fries? Oh well, they are really good especially when dipped in some hot cheese and ketchup.

    That's the main reason to go to Fuddrucker's. Put a whole bunch of nacho cheese and that spicy sprinkle stuff on top of your fries. (And pico de gallo on your burger, along with more nacho cheese.)

    By the way, some of you who think fries are served too salty are going to love this: I sprinkle lots of salt on my fries and usually drag them through more salt before I eat them. Some fast food restaurants serve salt in little tiny packets. I might use 4 or 5 of those at once.

    Yup, no fries compare to the store bought steak fries. Most any brand will do - they put all others to shame.

    Something else to try:

    About 15 years ago, this girl introduced me to McDonald's fries dipped in their Hot Mustard sauce. To this day, when I go to McDonald's, I eat their fries this way.

    I'll second the Coney Island Cheese fries and the Fuddrucker's fries with the jalepeno cheese sauce.

    If you happen to go to BW3's, try their Potatos wedges with cheddar basket ( its a large order of crispy sour cream and chive potato wedges topped with cheddar cheese.), then instead of ketchup you ask for for Bleu-Cheese dressing to dip them in. mmmmmm-good. My arteries are hardening with delight as I type this. :p

    KFC - Love those wedges

    It would have been McDonalds, but they are not the same. Whataburger's are pretty good when their hot. I just went to California this past week and was able to try In-N-Out. They were ok, but their hamburgers were pretty good.

    McDonalds are the best at fast food places.

    I tried Niko Niko's recently and the home fries are excellent. Try them with the gyro- very good.

    It is located on Montrose near Westheimer- good service and quick- they handle a crowd well....
