Cold French Fries are really good

r/

And yes, im mentally stable (mostly)
I will die on this hill. I don’t know why everyone has a problem with cold fries but I think they are really good. No, I don’t PREFER them over regular fries, but if I see leftover fries in the fridge every once in a while, I’m taking a handful and willingly eating them without putting them in the microwave. Call me crazy I don’t care, I’m happy.

    Sure but only as a topping on fridge pizza

    The texture is a problem but yeah, they’re still good

    It depends. If you make chunky ones at home with real potatoes – maybe. Fries from McDonalds taste like cardboard when they’re cold.

    Sorry bud, can’t upvote – a handful.if fridge fries is just the thing sometimes.

    Want a really unpopular opinion? Sometimes I prefer my leftover garlic Parmesan boneless chicken bites straight out of the fridge.

    This is definitely unpopular lol

    I’m totally with you on this one.
    It tastes better when it’s hot but when you suddenly remember that you have leftover fries after a huge meal or a big party, it’s so good.

    Sometimes you feel super hungry, then you eat them cold and realize it’s ALL you needed.

    Cold fries suck but cold potato wedges are good. I cannot explain this.. I just know it to be true.

    Why don’t you like frozen ones?

  14. redsporkyy Avatar

    Definitely depends on the fries. Most of them, hell no, once they’ve gone cold from whether they came from they just aren’t good anymore. But every once in a while there are winners.

    omg. I LOVE COLD AND SOGGY FRIES ❤️ lmao I may not be mentally stable, though😂

  16. EasilyRekt Avatar

    Honestly, not quite better than the fresh ones will 100% percent agree that cold is the best way to have em the day after lol. Any way you could possibly reheat them just sogs em up more.

    Enjoy the upvote cuz wow

    I like cold five guys fries but i like hot fries best. Cold fries are good too though. Cold and squishy saggy kind are the best cold ones. Saggy but not wet if you know you know, steak fries make the best cold saggy fries.

    I would rather eat cold fries than fries reheated in a microwave!

    Very unpopular. Also, very cursed.

    If they’re proper pub fries, I agree. Any fast food joint fries? Fucking hell no.

  22. WhereTheMoneyAtBoy Avatar

    Fries left out for a few hours is one thing, but straight out of the refrigerator without warming them up is feral behavior. Take the upvote

    Worst thing I’ve ever read and honestly ruined my night. Enjoy the upvote

    Just say you have no tastebuds and eat cardboard. Jesus

  25. lemonleaf0 Avatar

    Okay I like cold pizza so I’m not one to judge cold fries. However, deeeefinitely not for me, so upvoted haha. And I’m curious, what about cold fries do you like? Is it the texture change, flavor, the actual coldness?

  26. Dry_Arachnid1178 Avatar

    Disgusting.

    However, dipping hot french fries into cold ice cream is the fucking tits, mate.

  27. kevinwhackistone Avatar

    This is the literally the worst take I’ve ever heard.  Super unpopular.  Good work.

    I bet u eat toenails

  29. Gonnatryhere Avatar

    Honestly, depends how moist they still are. Dry old fries have a worse texture. Nothing beats too hot straight out of the frier though.

    My wife thinks I’m a sociopath because I eat frozen crinkle cut fries. I think they’re super legit.

  32. Frosty-Pay5351 Avatar

    Yeah me too I don’t prefer them to freshly fried but they are good the cold fries and cold fried battered fish.

  33. Chest_Rockfield Avatar

    Just when I thought it couldn’t be any worse, the reheating method cited was a microwave. JFC. Can someone please teach this person what freezers and air fryers are??

  34. cerialthriller Avatar

    Cold fries are just soggy thick potato chips

  35. LifeNewbie-basically Avatar

    I can only do it with McDonald’s French fries and Walmart fries (specifically the seasoned one and the Arby’s curly ones, but only the Arby’s brand from Walmart not Arby’s itself)

    You’re not crazy. Cold French fries just hit right every now and then

    You aren’t mentally stable but props for understanding the mission

    Damn, an actual unpopular opinion. Frankly they’re mostly disgusting and dry the next day, but some places make it in a way where they retain some of the original properties of the product, so I guess our mileage can vary

    Psychopath please take my upvote good person.

  39. DSM20T Avatar

    I’m not sure which is worse, cold fries or microwaved old fries. Both sound horrendous.

  40. Oxjrnine Avatar

    One – fries don’t go in microwave, they go into the toaster oven

    Two – maybe a hash brown or steak fry but all other fries are nasty cold. Ether they have the texture of lard or you break a tooth.

    Toaster oven takes 2 minutes to restore the texture. I throw delivery fries in mine as soon as my food arrives from Skip.

  41. Spyderbeast Avatar

    It’s truly unpopular, but a much better attitude than my last ex, who would send fries back, or hover over the prep area at a fast food place to make sure he wasn’t getting old fries….

    I have only ate cold fries in desperate times (hangover, or closest thing available when I haven’t ate in a long time), are you okay? 😆

    I’m gonna disagree with this one.

    I eat cold salt boiled potatoes so, I get ya lol

  47. cragglerock93 Avatar

    I agree. I like them cold (or lukewarm) and all flacid from being wet.
