French Fries! Who doesn't like french fries? From carnivores to vegetarians to those gluten free ones, the one commonality is their love of french fries (also, probably fruits, liquor and etc...but we don't care).
After a long day of ..... a basket of fries (and a burger for some) just hits the spot, but what happens if you want to take it out? Don't fall for it...don't!!! So you order you're food and grab the bag of amazing and lovable food and you head home, once home you discover that not only are the french fries not hot, but their soggy! The wet, limp, soggy nothings that you could of gotten by stepping on a potato and eating it, has nearly ruined your already long day. If i wanted to eat soggy warm potatoes go to the upper-east side and paid 10 bucks for a few (yea it's ridiculous there), but seriously, we buy fries for the crisp, the freshness, and the salt. The biggest tragedy in the 21st century is soggy french fries. When you're craving french fries, do me a favor and eat them there. Here are a few favorite french fries places: Pommes Frites , In-n-Out, and Petey's Burger. While McDonalds, White Castle and other well known est. reign king the three small est. definitely take pride in their food. Pommes Frites is in the lower east side, and while you're expecting some snotty french chefs, you'll find some local filipinos who love there fries. They only serve fries, and have over 25 sauces. In-n-Out is West Coast Christian staple who makes everything fresh and includes bible verses on their food....seriously! Finally, Petey's Burger who recently opened in Astoria, NYC, has great food; handcut fries and greasy burgers, oh my!
Now if you decide to make your own fries, be sure to carefully cool them down. Think of them as cookies, you don't just throw piping hot cookies on top of each other, do you?! And don't under cook them, remember 21st century tragedy. Keep them warm and crisp.
While we live in a society that loves high sodium, and high cholesterol food, and with a growing issue of obesity, so please don't eat warm soggy potatoes, but if you must, do it right when cheating on your diet.
