If my wife walks out and sees me eating my breakfast including hash browns she doesn’t even blink. But the other day I was eating the exact same breakfast replacing the hash browns with a handful of chips on my plate. I was ridiculed the rest of the day.

It’s the same damn thing!!!!!!!!! It’s a crispy freakin potato. It’s not like I was eating Cheetos and Milk Duds or something. That’s all.

Im more concerned that you're eating that many carbs for breakfast!

Did you put ketchup or hot sauce on the chips? If so, she has no argument.

Hell I ate a ham and Cheese sandwich for breakfast the other day, and my wife and kids looked at me like I was crazy!! But if I had put in on a croissant instead of regular bread they would have called it a breakfast croissant and nobody would have cared.

ya, just give me one of those reddish veggie alcohol drinks with toothpick skewers of olives, black licorice and a wedge of pimento cheese. throw some cottage cheese and a some minced garlic into the soup for good measure. the fouler the better.

Agreed. Same thing. BUT, I love a good fry/potato talk. What's your favorite kind? Here's mine...

1. Home chips (the most underrated of all fry/potatoes)
2. Steak fries (love the yield)
3. Crinkle cut (but dangit Culvers, leave them in the fryer a little longer)
4. Rally's style skinny seasoned fries
5. All the rest are trash and you should be forced to eat 1-4

I love crinkle cut and skinny but at least once a year I need a good cottage and/or waffle fry.
Steak fries fill me up too fast.

when I was a kid we would have thinly sliced fried potatoes with our breakfast 2-3 times a week but my dad still lived to 79.......

McDonald’s fries are addictive and may be the ruination of American society.

I inherited an appetite for left over chili on my eggs. Probably shortened my life by 10 years.

My hash browns are smothered in onions and a lot of pepper but no salt.
Read a book about about monks in the upper midwest a few years back and it was said their biggest problem to overcome was that each of their mothers fried potatoes a different way.

Arby's curly fries renders your entire otherwise well reasoned argument invalid.

Tip of the cap to the waffle fry. Can't believe I forgot those. I'd eat those from chick fil a in Brady with mayo for lunch as a frosh at MU. Wonder why I eclipsed that frosh 15 pretty quickly???

My grandma (who raised me) cooked those same potatoes for dinner at least once a week. She's been gone nearly 10 yrs and I can taste them as I type. I think you had to be born in the 20s-40s to understand how to do those right.

Stop it man, I hate their fries. I hate any curly fry. Gets all discombobulated trying to dip it. Then it breaks off and I get the soppings all over my beard. Just a pain. My wife's one big pregnancy craving was this sandwich at Arbys. I grew to hate those fries. But I love the sammies there!

There's a steak place in Pittsburg, KS called Jim's Steakhouse. Been there forever. you get fries that resemble a thinner version of steak fries with your steak. They end up soaking up some of the steak juice and before you know it, you've eaten them all and have to be wheeled out in a cart.

ChikFilA waffle fries are pretty darn good, too. Also, the skinny fries at SteaknShake...

Next thing you know we'll be discussing whether sitting or standing when you wipe your butt is the correct way to do it.

How do you get all the Klingons off Uranus if you're sitting?!? Of course, I've never tried sit-wiping, so I must admit I'm ignorant on this topic. Maybe the Japanese have it correct with their space ship high tech bidets.
 
I'm telling you boys...this is the type of thread I can get accustomed to! Getting down to serious stuff here.
Lets face it, there just aren't many ways to fry potatoes/fries/etc that aren't good. Even frozen fries dropped in hot fish grease on the river bank after a night of gigging.

Arby's is garbage.

Can confirm. Jim's is bonafide.

Now, I was told if I were to stop and eat in Pitt, I should go to one of the Chicken Places
