How do they stack up against Wendy's natural cut fries?

The new BK fries are ok; I'd say a slight improvement over the old ones.

Wendy's new natural fries are good, but I actually prefer their old fries.





The wet noodle, flattened, grease laden McD's fries are my favorite fast food fries

Yes, the new fries are much better.  The old one's left a bad after taste and film in my mouth.

They are they best, and even better when they are greasy and limp,i think that comes from undercooking them by 10 or 20 seconds.

I've always preferred BK fried to McD's fries.



The new BK fries are an improvement.

I just had BK fries for the first time in years the other day and I was amazed by how utterly tasteless they were.

They were nothing more than a vehicle for the salt, which was about the only thing I could taste.

Meh, I don't like the crispy on the outside mushy on the inside.  

BK really needs to step it up.  They have what's called 2020 Burger Kings.  Those are the new renovations they are impletmenting.  They do look promising but seriously, 2020?  We have only one in the entire Twin Cities area.  By 2020 that design will be out of style.  

I do like the new design though.  BK's target is supposed to be 18-36 males.  Black and stainless steel are man colors.  I think they should go for a man cave feel.  





They are also supposed to get the Coke Freestyle machine which is kind of cool.  Something like 120 flavors of Coke products.

BK should worry more about their food and less about the look

BK is pretty much the worst of the bunch (Jack in the crack being the worst)

and what's with all this changing the fries
Wendy's new fries worse than the old fries.
Carl's Jr new fries WAY worse than the old fries
BK fries, well, they have always been bad, who knows.

They are still trying to match McDonald's fires. I don't think they have ever changed them.

They had to do something.  The previous fried BK had were inedible.  They were just for garnish.

Cool, a new way to make a kids soda (a bit of each choice).  I think those new machines have about 100k possible combinations, if i recall the story i saw on TV about them correctly. Wonder how many sugar free selections are available.

There used to be a couple hamburger joints called Just-Rite I think it was, in Crawfordsville, IN.

Hands down the best damn fries on the planet.

My favourite fried chicken place (Pioneer) still does it.  You can get a bucket of livers and gizzards.  Don't care for them myself but quite a few people do order them.

Am I the only one who remembers when BK went to the new fries many years ago? Of course, I don't remember what they used to taste like. Wendy's natural cuts are superb! But I always have a thing for the flavour of McD's. Must put something in the oil.
