    I eat fries with ketchup.

    Gotta get over that, actually. In April I will be going to Chicago for a week to see some baseball, and apparently they have a mind-block which prevents them from eating the stuff (on a hot dog, at least).

    Up here in Ontario it's fries with gravy, or poutine, which is fries with gravy and cheese curd.

    I like mine with mayo too. I grew up in Seattle, though, which means I know the best condiment to compliment fries is tartar sauce.

    You dare to destroy the sacred chip supper with ketchup?! :klingon: :lol:

    That's what we had to cope with at University. Life was hell. :(

    Chips go best with pepper, but if not available at the local chippy then a sparing amount of salt will be sufficient. I'm not a sauce or vinegar person, personally. :bolian:

    It's here in Wageningen.
    They are shops.
    They used to be divided in 4 shops, but the Lunchroom on one side became so succesfull it now occupies the segment next to it as well.
    The other 2 segments had many shops in them, but right now one is a hairdresser and the other is a tailoring-shop.

    Jenee, hahahaha!

    STQ, i love 'em with ts as well.

    But if I'm at McDonalds, it's salt and salt alone.

    I'm wondering, i noticed some of the Europeans specifically mention "Fries (or chips) with salt". Is that how you order it? I mean here we just say fries and they are automatically salted.

    Ooh, Tom, what a gorgeous smile your little guy has!

    I have my fries/chips with mayo only because I can't get my hands on proper Dutch frietsaus here. I need to ask my brother, who lives in Amsterdam, to send me a bottle of the stuff the next time he sends one of his goody boxes. I'll never be a proper Brit, though, because I hate vinegar and can't have it on my chips. I'll always be a "furriner". :rommie:

    ^ i'm British born and bred and i hate vinegar. i have my chips with tomato sauce on and nothing else.

    randi, chips from a chippy maybe ordered with salt and/or vinegar. fries from MaccyD's or similar are automatically salted. home cooked chips are done however you prefer.

    Echoed on the question to Rincewiend

    Fries are actually better with ranch dressing then they are with mayo.

    I'm not even gonna ask about oyster sauce....

    Fries that have cheddar cheese and bacon are best with ranch dressing, that's indisputable.
