Sea salt and malt vinegar. I am Canadian and it's a thing.

[โ€“] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Same here. Not Canadian though, I just have good taste and a penchant to apologize. Sorry.

[โ€“] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

It's ok, I'm sorry too.

In Belgium: Tartare or Mayo. Andalouse for the gal, thanks

In the UK: Salt and Vinegar

In both cases: I will have to change seat if you plop yourself in front of me with your poor fries inundated by ketchup. Only the French do that, and it is a Casus Belli in my book.

Mayo.

Maybe add some garlic, and bam:

Aioli.

Mayo + Ketchup combined, the classic "Rot-Weis"-combo in Germany.

That or, preferrably, mayo + a good chilli sauce

peanut sauce / satay sauce

nothing beats it

[โ€“] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 5 points 10 months ago

The kid's plate at my usual Thai place is satay and fries. I've definitely stolen a few fries and can confirm this is a pretty good combo

I haven't seen anyone mention nutritional yeast yet, but that's become my go-to seasoning for almost everything; popcorn, pizza, scrambled eggs, bread, ramen, soft pretzels, and of course on fries. So damn good!

(Yes, I realize the name "nutritional yeast" sounds vaguely unpleasant and unappetizing, but I promise it's incredible if you like savory flavors, and it can also be used as a cheese powder substitute in vegan recipes.)

War

No really, that's a thing.

Basically mayo, peanut sauce and diced onions (some add ketchup or curry sauce too, but I don't like that, personally)

Where I live Zoervleis is a favorite of many. One can get it in any Snackbar.

[โ€“] ShadowCatEXE@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If it's just fries, then nothing other than salt.

Otherwise, cheese curds and gravy.
