BK kept the new fries till now.
It was alright though. I got the Chef's Choice burger, and it MORE than made up for the experience.

Animal style fries are hit and miss. I've gotten some with unmelted slices of cheese.

So goddamn good. I love that they sell them in the frozen section now! McDonald's old fries were on par.
Do you have any pictures of the planet you came from? I was always interested in alien geography.
some like to call 'em ookie fries.

Haven't been to a BK in eons.
McDonalds does have the best tasting fries IMO, but you don't want to know why.
Best fries period are Jack in the Box Curly Fries

These are indeed the best. I used to eat them all the time then all of a sudden they started making me really sick, now I can't even have one of them without my stomach getting upset.

I cried a little inside when they got rid of the beef tallow, the fries today are a PALE shadow of their former selves.

Nooooooooooooooooooooo! BK had my favorite fries! Life isn't worth living anymore if they destroy them.

lol. I really, really am. They were always crunchy and so salty I felt like I was going to have a heart attack just eating them. I love 'em.
Are you sure you're thinking of Burger King? They truly have horrible fries.

I really liked BK fries. The only thing they could've done that would make me happier was seasoned fries and they have failed. I guess there's still j in the b.

People, shockingly, have different tastes. I also loved the old BK fries and this news worries me tremendously.
I mean, it's not like I ever eat there because I can't stand any of their other food except their little pies, but their french fries were some of my favorites.

Are you talking about Jack in the Box? I don't think they have any here in south floriday, I've never had them.

Haven't you ever noticed that Mickey D's/BK's fries have a plasticish coating on them? Not to mention the seemingly painted on grillmarks on the burgers.
You're ruining his childhood.

McDonald's fries in the UK are terrible. They're floppy and soft. BK's are a lot better, but I prefer KFC's.
How do you make it thicker and crisper?
McDonalds have it nailed, I live how they feel they can't just copy them and actually went the opposite way with thicker. Good effort BK.
I know a lot of idiots in the UK who somehow prefer BK fries over McDs - imbeciles!
Now one company that badly needs to update its fries is KFC - what the fuck colonel sanders get with the game man!!!

They serve fries in the UK? We have potato wedges in the US, which ultimately are superior to all other fries except Checker's and Miami Subs.

These are good as long as you get them early in the day. After they've ran a bunch of orders through the same grease pit, they start getting gross.

No love for Nathan's crinkle-cut? I fucking loved them when I was in the states. No sauce, healthy salt sprinkling, crispy edges. Yum.

Booo-urns to this. Burger king fries are work of the gods and i choose them above Mcd's floopy wimp fries every time. Dissapointed with this move

Has anyone actually tried them yet? When do they start rolling out?
We've had them down here in Florida for a couple months now. But Burger King is a Florida thing, so maybe we just get them first. I love the new fries compared to the old ones. Definitely a lot thicker, almost like steak fries.
Yeah wedges are good and seem a lot harder to get wrong. But what I love to do at KFC is wrap the fries up in any spare skin and dip it all in gravy - amazing. I worship KFC's gravy.
Honestly KFC with McDonalds fries would be perfect.
If I wanted to taste potatoes, I'd actually order it another form that is supposed to be really potato-y like mashed potatoes or a baked potato.
Really..? (Honest question, I always thought the link with high blood pressure was fully established).

Maybe it was my fryer, but the frozen ones didn't seem as good to me. Not as much flavor.
I am rather excited to see BK change their fries up. They were atrocious. Almost Pringlesesque in their artificiality.
I strongly disagree with those that heap scorn on the new Wendys fries. They're edible at worst and fucking amazing at best.

Had a new fries poutine yesterday. It still tasted good. It ended up being more food because they stacked the fries like a log pile, unlike the 'pick up sticks' nest of the old fries. Super filling.

Coating used by their fries and many other fast food ones are basically a starch coating that gives them a crispier exterior. Some places put it on heavily on their fries making them almost seem battered exterior. Checkers/Rally fries also have such a coating (though spiced) as you can see above in pics where they come off with a bumpy almost smooth texture on the outside of the fry.

"New coating". More grease?
