I'm really not a big white potato fan but sweet potatoes and onions are delicious
This is exactly what I thought as going to answer. Fuckin LOVE sweet potatoes and onions
When cooked well enough, I'd say 1 2 4 5 8 3 6 7.
Ain't no way I'd ever put wedges higher or shoelace lower. Those are always gonna be constant.
Doesn't matter which, if its done incorrectly its complete garbage.
Done right, each one, extremely delicious... except maybe sweet potato
Why not #9?
I assumed because the category was "things that aren't actually real chips / potato fries" - by being real pieces of fried potato these are disqualified 😅
They are delicious
Zigzag?? Bitch you mean crinkle cut?!?!
It’s not worth respecting something that clearly belongs on the bottom of the list.
Sweet potato is at the bottom. If you disagree with me, you're an idiot.
Ok, but I'm an idiot with happy taste buds.
You make me sick
Look at it this way, I'll eat the stuff you don't like so there's more of the stuff you DO like!
You may be an idiot but you're not stupid
Most of these are good, just for different things. I want waffle fries at the bar; I want shoestring fries at the burger place; I want wedges at the cafe on the corner.
Except the zigzags. I don't think I've ever had a good zigzag.
Zig zag/crinkle cut goes to the back and I think waffle deserves the #1 spot personally. I agree with the rest of the ordering otherwise.

Posting such a controversial question and putting in onion rings on this list is bordering on rage bait
Edit: I can't type
I'm really sorry I should have put a trigger warning

Chips?
-
Tater tots are basically an entire potential meal of their own. Not a French fry, but I may actually prefer them as a possible main dish.
-
The best French fries. They are the perfect side.
-
If you want to fancy it up a bit. Suitable for formal occasions.

Taking the one-dimensional line of the French fry and extrapolating it out to two dimensions. Still a good ketchup conveyance, but starting to get into the issue I'm going to bring up with...
5, 6, 7. Not a good enough ratio of crispy outer fried surface to gooey potato inner. I prefer crisp, but when I bite one of these, I have a good chance of just getting a mouthful of scalding hot potato napalm, or what's worse, cold potato cement. Not ideal.
'8. Yeccch.
counterargument: 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8
Straight out of the fryer

Yes. To all of them.
Jack in the Box curlies from 20 years ago before they switched to a different frying oil. I was just arriving in the states and that stuff was the best ever.
Hardee's curly fries are the best. By extension I guess that means Carl's Jr. too, but I wouldn't know.
Did they do what McDonald's did and switch from beef tallow to vegetable oil?
I miss the old McDonald's fries but I like that their less terrible for you, but yet they're still not vegetarian/vegan.
I would like onion rings but shaped like curly fries #2
