French fries, a.k.a. chips, aka freedom fries, aka ???, are a delightful treat enjoyed the world over, and they’re a staple of the fast-food meal. And what is fast food, exactly? For the purposes of this survey, I've selected chains where there’s an emphasis on speed of service, you’re not waited on at a table, and where there are at least a couple hundred locations, if not more. I ordered medium- or regular-sized fries (when available) and judged them based on the two metrics: (1) taste and (2) texture, which includes fry shape and mouthfeel.

1) Five Guys

2) McDonald’s

3) Del Taco

4) Steak ‘n Shake

5) Arby’s
