fries vs. chips

which do you prefer? Personally i am more a fan of the chip, you know chunky and in my opinion nicer....possibly better for you too...though i may have made that bit up



  • chips

    chunky, can absorb more vinegar, and generally nicer. plus, you can cut them into any shape you want. Mickey Mouse shape, Smartie shape, Amphibious landing craft shape, poke in the eye shape.

  • chips

    although i'm sure they're not, they feel less unhealthy to me.

    • chips

      they are real and not reconstructed

      • well - it depends really

        and is determined by many factors. Chips are good as mentioned by shucks becasue they can absorb more vineagar and sauce but then, fries are also good when you want something a bit crispy so as you can see, I am hopelessly divided on this issue.

    • Chips are larger and are thus healthier.

      I love all forms of potato product.

      • exactly

        they have more potato.
        potato is a vegetable.
        vegetables are good for you.
        blah blah blah.

        • NO.

          Something to do with frying and surface areas.
          Apparently potatoes don't count in your five-a-day list :(

          • I heard that too.

            And decided to pass it off as pure gossip and LIES.

          • oh

            i wasn't saying that was WHY it was more healthy, just why i assume it is :D

  • I just had steak and chips

    for dinner and it was YUM!!!! :D

  • GOD I'M HUNGRY.

    Last night I had McDonalds fries with these new things...mozzarella fried in breadcrumbs. So good.

    • I'm hungry as well

      despite the steak and chips. Could go for a pizza actually....

    • the sound of the 'new thing'

      makes my ventricles hurt.
      but they sound GOOD at the same time.

      • They were good.

        Cheese and grease! What more could you want?

        • well

          for me - nothing.
          but i acknowledge that my diet is appalling :P

  • SPINACH!

    but otherwise chips probably

    • why are we in on a saturday night?

      I feel like a lung has collapsed but am sure it hasn't but you know what I mean

      Chips.

      • i don't really have any money to go out

        and i have a lot of strongbow and vodka in the fridge...

    • mmmmmmmmm

      i like this thread. Getting hungry now.

    • i just had fresh carnitas...

      made my a real live mexican grandma...

      woo hoo!!!

      carnitas and beer....

      can't beat that!

      • Now I'm hungry

        AND thirsty.

        • chips are so much better

          You can get a suitable amount of HP sauce on them, unlike fries. Also, they are bigger and taste better. Seriously, there is no contest.

          • i am in on a Saturday night

            prole because I am working!

  • i much prefer fries

    if i want potatoe, i eat potatoe

    • lol

      potatoe....like that Dan Quayle...

  • Chips no contest.

  • i prefer the middle ground.

    • pppfttt

      sitting on the fence...you have to make a choice.

    • nice big chunky chips with the skins on and loads of mayonnaise = the best.

      but sometimes you just feel like eating loads of shitty mcdonalds chips.

      • mayonnaise- yes!

      • I only eat McD's

        when I'm unhappy.

        It's proper comfort food.

        • Chips if im at the seaside.

          Fries if I'm at home. Only ever eat fast food when I'm in a rush and can't sit down, find the time for a meal.

          I find McDonalds great hangover food though.

          • mmmmmm salty salty maccy d fries

            yummy yummy for my tummy
