The French Fries War. I don’t know when this started but I just noticed that the three famous fast food chains here in the Philippines is having a french fries war. I’ve never been a fan of this potato-sliced-into-strips-and-deep-fried dish they commonly call french fries since I’m a chicken girl (you know what I mean, it’s not synonymous to cowardice). But after having my dentist put me in constant excruciating agony by changing the good little colorful elastics of my braces into those nasty elastic ligature, I am now in a constant diet of french fries and spaghetti whenever I am in a fast food chain. Sooo horrible.

So there’s McDonalds with their Twister Fries and their ordinary French Fries dusted with salt. Never tried the twister fries but I think there ordinary fries are quite decent enough to eat. Crispy and salty and the serving is adequate for the money you’ve paid it for. I once tried their flavored fries and I hate them. Better stick with the ketchup and salt.

Jollibee Fries. They taste a little bit crappy compared to the McDonald’s fries but then they’re more adventurous to eat. They have dips with different flavors. You don’t have to stick with the classic ketchup and salt, you can have cheese dips and other dips. But then some dips are gross.

The most unique in taste and appearance is the KFC fries. They have this new Mini Bucket of Fries which I like and it comes with a cool container. I don’t know about you but I’ve never had ketchup with my KFC fries, I dip it in gravy which usually comes with the fries. Maybe I’ll try ketchup next time.
