    Sea salt and malt vinegar. I am Canadian and it’s a thing.

      Same here. Not Canadian though, I just have good taste and a penchant to apologize. Sorry.

    In Belgium: Tartare or Mayo. Andalouse for the gal, thanks

    In the UK: Salt and Vinegar

    In both cases: I will have to change seat if you plop yourself in front of me with your poor fries inundated by ketchup. Only the French do that, and it is a Casus Belli in my book.

        On a des valeurs en Belgique. Surtout sur l’assaisonnement des frites, la hauteur du col de mousse de la biere, et le caractère optionnel d’un gouvernement de plein exercice.

          Hahaha, l’influence de la Belgique est croissante en France. Depuis quelques années, on y boit des bières bien meilleures, la mayonnaise maison se généralise dans les restaurants de burgers et le gouvernement est devenu optionnel.

        I prefer chocolate myself, but I can make other flavors work.

              Maybe. People do their fries in chocolate or vanilla frosty, so

      Came to see if anyone said this. I grew up with that shit and it was fantastic! Nothing compared, not even regular ice cream!

    Mayo.

    Maybe add some garlic, and bam:

    Aioli.

        Aioli, by definition, is ‘garlic and oil’.

        Mayonnaise, by definition, is ‘egg yolks, beaten with oil.’

        Mayonnaise and garlic is therefore, by culinary definition, aioli.

        I invite you to ask any French chef.

          Aioli is “garlic and oil” by translation. By definition aioli is a spread made from oil emulsified with garlic, which mixing garlic into mayonnaise does not achieve. That said, the colloquial use of aioli to refer to just about any thick smooth spread is well on its way to changing that. Pedants like me can fight it all we want, but languages evolve. It’s just what they do.

            It does achieve it, as mayonnaise is emulsified.

              When I said “emulsified with garlic” I was trying to convey the idea that the garlic is the emulsifier. “Oil emulsified by egg with garlic added for flavor” is not an aioli by its rigid definition, but it does fit the american colloqual use

    I haven’t seen anyone mention nutritional yeast yet, but that’s become my go-to seasoning for almost everything; popcorn, pizza, scrambled eggs, bread, ramen, soft pretzels, and of course on fries. So damn good!

    (Yes, I realize the name “nutritional yeast” sounds vaguely unpleasant and unappetizing, but I promise it’s incredible if you like savory flavors, and it can also be used as a cheese powder substitute in vegan recipes.)

      I put this only on popcorn but always on popcorn. Oh and sometimes in grits. So good in cheese grits, with cheddar, jalapenos and butter and salt. Way better than with just the cheese. So I guess only on corn.

        Yeah nothing ever came close to Parmesan for me. I’ll use yeast when its the only option at my vegan friends places but I’ll never be able to be truly vegetarian because of Parmesan
