I do like mayo on fries, or a mixture of mayo and ketchup, and maybe some mustard and/or bbq sauce on fries. Onion rings are better than fries, btw. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onion rings are better than fries, btw. tater tots are damn good as well. Loaded tots with cheese, bacon bits and pickled jalapenos do not suck. There is a burger joint down here in Texas called Rodeo Goat. They serve a dish called The Steaming Pile. The "Steaming Pile" from Rodeo Goat in Dallas: jalapeño cheddar tater tots with goat cheese, cheddar, bacon, truffle oil, and topped with a fried egg. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomguy Posted November 20, 2023 Share #13 Posted November 20, 2023 Vinegar, I feel, is a horrid thing to put on fries, as is gravy or cheese. Sogginess, the enemy of fries, is caused by all three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralphie ★ Posted November 20, 2023 Share #16 Posted November 20, 2023 Mostly in the side but it can touch a few on the ends. Occasionally salt the ketchup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisL Posted November 20, 2023 Share #17 Posted November 20, 2023 I’m a dipper and mayo on fries is the bomb. I actually prefer a ketchup & mayo mix with my fries. Funny thing is none of my family has spent any time in Holland yet I got them all into mayo on fries. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If by salt you mean add a bit of juice from a jar of pickled jalapenos, then I agree. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikeguy Posted November 21, 2023 Share #28 Posted November 21, 2023 On the side. I was brave a few times... and tried on the fries. That convinced me on the side is THE way to do this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groupw Posted November 21, 2023 Share #29 Posted November 21, 2023 I’m not totally into mayo, but I kind of like a little tartar sauce. I found that when I worked at McDonalds and would get a filet-o-fish. I would wipe up excess sauce with the fries and really liked it! I do like the fry sauce at Freddy’s as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted November 21, 2023 Share #30 Posted November 21, 2023 By the way, mayo is never the answer. Sometimes it can be -- on a tuna fish sandwich but I never eat that anymore. Wait. Incorrect. In fact I do. My wife makes it so I'm pleading moron here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentonMakes Posted November 21, 2023 Share #34 Posted November 21, 2023 On the side. but mayo is a wonderful occasional treat. I also like seafood cocktail sauce on fries (really it's just ketchup and horseradish). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the flavor of vinegar, it is just the sogginess that confuses me. Salt and vinegar potato chips are pretty good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
