    Most fast food french fries these days are double-fried with some kind of seasoning and/or batter crap on them. I used to like McDonalds fries until they started this, long ago. Then I preferred Burger King's - at least theirs wasn't as noticeable.


    To me BK fries have always had a very noticeable crunchy coating over them compared to McD's and Wendy's fries. Almost like what you see on curly fries in many places. It's been a while since I had any from BK though.

    Still if I did decide to add fries I feel like I might as well get the "real" thing rather than a not-as-good-but-still-pretty-bad substitute

    "...the thinner batter..."

    WTF? Since when did fries need a "batter"?!


    THANK YOU!! I read this article last night and thought wtf? Batter on french fries? I wonder what awesome, totally natural and nutrient-rich ingredients this batter is made out of.
    The batter is obvious when you eat BK fries. Either McDonalds doesn't use batter, or it is so thin that is is not noticable.

    Neither McDonalds nor Burger King use a batter (unless it's added when they get it in the restaurant). They are a standard 1/4" cut fry made out of real potatos.... and both made..... by the same place :wink:

    Really? They taste so different though, and Burger King's seem thicker.

    I tried them today. Didn't realize it was still 270 calories for a small. Oops. Still fits in my day though. And they were actually not bad at all... and I usually don't like Burger King fries. Might be because I haven't had fries in 9 months though, but heck. No regrets.

    Tell me about it! I was so shocked after the fact lol
