They taste less processed to me than BK's.
But I did have an unusual reaction the first time I tasted In-N-Out's. I grew to like them, but they don't have a wide appeal.
I liked BK's fries when I was a kid in 80/90s. As I recall, they were a lot more similar to McDonalds style fries. As bad as those can be, I like "plain" tasting fries over the ones with coatings and seasoning mixed into the french fry "batter". I'll be sure to try the new ones though. I visit BK once in a while for an icee and 99 cent spicy chicken crisp.

Ketchup. You should try it.
Ketchup ruins In-N-Out's fries.

They used to have good shakes too, but I haven't been to one in a decade. They always had several flavors when most places were still only doing choc/van/straw.
I should not have clicked this thread. :/
Yeah, and I suppose I could just smother everything else I don't like in ketchup also and it would taste like...ketchup.

I actually noticed this a few nights ago. They tasted worse than I recall, and remain leagues behind McDonald's fries.
You are out of your mind. Those current BK fries are ghastly.

No, they taste like shit out here in California too.
When I first read the headline... I was like... already?
Then I saw it said 1998.
Fuck you, time.
Timedog is cool though.

Wendy's has the best fast food fries.
If you want the best poutines go to:
Fromagerie Lemaire in St-Germain/St-Cyrille or La cantine la Poutinette in Wickham, Quebec.

These are fucking terrible. Thick cut fries are the worst.

I like the Wendy's fries, though. Sea salt makes all the difference.
If Checker's switches over to sea salt, they can make world peace with their fries.
didnt you used to post on IGN?

There's two Five Guys shops in my area, I should go in and try their fries.
I had a burger there once, it was okay, but I like a little pink in my burger, and they cook their stuff well done. I was too busy munching on the free peanuts to try the fries.

I love random Toronto references in GAF threads. But yes, particularly after a few beers, Smokes is amazing.

The BK fries were always way better than McDonalds. This change makes it sound better.
I'm happy with this less-sodium/salt trend.

Here's a photo of the new BK fries:
Kinda hard to tell from that pic, but they don't look much different. I hope they haven't changed too much, I've always loved their fries.

Free french fries again! Just like last time.
No charming cartoon characters to promote it this time though.

This makes me sad. I loved their "old" fries. I'll have to stop there tomorrow and try the new ones out.
Dear Burger King,
I don't eat at your fast food chain because your fries are shit, I don't eat eat their because your burgers and buns taste like shit. Fix that problem and you might be onto something.
Love,
Former customer during his childhood years when Whoppers were insanely cheap.

I remember how they made a huge marketing campaign over "new fries" in '98... and they sucked so bad they quietly went back to their old fries a month later.
Hope this time is better.
But they still can't beat Harvey's or Lick's. (In Canada, anyway.)

It feels like just yesterday they changed their fry recipe. My family still calls them the "new fries". Now I just feel stupid that it happened over 10 years ago.
^^^And they didn't go back to the old recipe did they? They still taste different to me.

Blaspheme. The new Wendy's fries are awesome.
Mcdonalds fries are literally the worst, i'de rather chew on a raw potato then eat those nasty things. Old bk fries were a million times better.
Smokes poutine or nothin
How about instead of new fries,Why not try putting this out in the USA? If it's done right,it would go over big...
