who do you do. make fresh french fries or store bought fries? and which taste better?

Question

i like homemade.

Answer 1

Homemade only.

Answer 2

I prefer homemade french fries. There is nothing like the taste of homemade. Though if I am in a rush I do occasionally use frozen fries.

Answer 3

Homemade. They taste better and are better for you. (Assuming you don't fry them in lard!)

Here's an amusing true story about frozen vs homemade fries. While my 4 year old niece was spending the weekend with my mother,my mom made french french fries. My niece was just fascinated with the whole process. When she went home she told her mother in awe "Grandma made french fries out of potatoes!"

Answer 4

You could experiment with homemade fries... red potatoes, sweet potatoes, different types of oils and seasonings.

If you ever watch the extras on "Super Size Me" there is one where he does an experiment with fast food fries. vs homemade fries. The fast food fries never change and the other ones go bad. Cheap food now = expensive medical bills later, which is sooner than you think.

If you go to the nutrition page on the fast food site, you'll notice that there are 50 other ingredients along with potato, including "beef flavor", dimethylpolysiloxane (antifoaming agent), sodium acid pyrophosphate (maintain color).

Answer 6

I like our homemade fries. Skins on, double-fried.

(But fast food fries are nice for a treat.)

Answer 7

Most of the time, we make our own. I leave the skins on and cut them in long, thick strips. Fry-daddy!! Seldom do we have the store bought. We love homemade.

Answer 8

homemade are the best and by far taste better but frozen are convenient when your in a hurry they do not taste to bad if cooked right

Answer 9

Try the quick bake fries from Schwans. They are awesome!

Answer 10

Storebought ones aren't so great.
Homemade all the way!!
