This is exactly what I thought as going to answer. Fuckin LOVE sweet potatoes and onions
Doesn't matter which, if its done incorrectly its complete garbage.
Done right, each one, extremely delicious... except maybe sweet potato
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.
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.

Why not #9?
They are delicious
1 > 2 > 5 > 8 > 4 > 3 > 6 > 7
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
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

I would like onion rings but shaped like curly fries #2
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.
From best to worst - 2,8,4,3,7,1,5,6
Onions > sweet potatoes > potatoes
- Cheese curds
- Tots (The huge crunchy)
- Zigzag (The staple chicken side)
- Shoestring (Though they're so common that they get old)
- Curly (Big mass)
- Waffle (A little too wide)
Weirdos:
Wedges (The Bagpipe Theorem: Phenomenal when it's good, terrible when it's bad, it is at the top and the bottom of the list)
Sweet Potato (I tend to not like sweeter things)
Onion Rings (Please God I have ARFID that's not good crunchy)
Thing a about sweet potatoes is, you can eat em straight. Sweet potato fries by themselves are probably less sugar than regular fries + ketchup
4, 6 (if super crispy), 1, 3, 2, 7, 5, 8
how are zigzags in (if super crispy)?
