My, oh my, does one's body change when you get to college. There's the undeniable "Freshman 15," the very likely "Sophomore 20," and the fact that you're balling on a college budget and can only afford some very cheap, greasy, fatty and unhealthy fast food.
That being said, fast food is tasty AF (even though we don't necessarily want to admit to that). I'm here to compare the best and the worst fast food options out there for college students.
This week: french fries.
7. Burger King
Honestly, I forget about Burger King most of the time. Their fries really aren't half bad, they're just nothing special.
6. Whataburger
Okay, is it just me, or do Whataburger fries taste like a less-salty McDonald's fry? Lmk.
5. Zaxby's
Zaxby's are hands-down my personal fave, but you have to please the people. They have the best spices, are perfectly crisp and golden on the outside, and warm and soft on the inside. They're heavenly. Don't @ me.
4. Wendy's
Wendy's fries are honestly pretty good. They're just too inconsistent to be up higher.
3. Chick-Fil-A
What is there not to love about Chick-Fil-A, though? Their waffle fries are unreal. Of course, if this was about the chik'n, Chick-Fil-A would obviously be at #1.
2. Arby's
No one dislikes curly fries. It's almost inhumane.
1. McDonald's
These are guaranteed good, every time. When they're fresh out of the fryer and perfectly salted, there's no comparison to McDonald's fries. The number one fast food chain in the world is number one because of these bad boys right here.
Honorable Mention: Jack's
Another great crinkle cut fry found in the great state of Alabama. Not too many other places are lucky enough to enjoy these.
Honorable Mention: Milo's
And another great crinkle cut fry. Milo's is often forgotten about, very under-appreciated, but very deserving of an honorable mention at the least.
Honorable Mention: Red Robin
Not a fast food restaurant, but definitely has hands down the best fries ever. And you can get it to go... that counts for something, right?
Any fries you love that didn't make the cut? Another fast food restaurant that should be ranked #1 for their fries? Comment your favorites (or least favorites) below!
