Mj’s Top 5 Favorite Flavored Fries

French fries are my favorite past-time snacks. I find convenience in eating hand-picked potatoes: peeled, finely cut into thin pieces, and deep-fried. The salty taste complements in my mouth whenever I take a small bite. But lately, eating the classic flavored fries (the plain one) is getting bland for me.

So I decided to shift my preferences to flavored fries. I just discovered flavored fries in Potato corner. Then as time goes by, numerous food stalls/ fast food chains adapted flavored fries for better taste. Now that I tasted different flavors (from salty, sweet, sour, and spicy), my addiction to fries got even better (or worse). I am proud to introduce my top five favorite flavored fries for 2018.

 Top 5: Strawberry chocolate fries

Can you believe that strawberries and chocolates are possible in making weirdly delicious fries? At first, I find it barbaric because potatoes don't blend well with sweets (or at least, that's what I thought it would be). But then I tried this new flavor with a friend, and I kept on finding it every other day. Strawberry powdered fries topped with chocolate syrup, now that's acceptable. While eating it, I could taste the tangy strawberry flavor and the sweet chocolate syrup. It's a combination of 30% tangy/fruity, 20% salt, and 50% sweet. Better blended with delicious ice cream, preferably chocolate/strawberry ice cream, this one is hated by many but loved by a few, and I'm one of the few.

Top 4: Cheese fries

One flavor that will never disappear in the hearts of the public, cheese fires is the first flavor of fries introduced in the country. Every French fries stall has cheese fries on their menu. But there are variations of cheese fries. There are the traditional fries covered in bright orange powder, which is the cheese. There's also this fries topped with real slices of mozzarella cheese. And there are fries drenched in large amounts of sticky cheese sauce. Whatever the way of the cheese fries, there will always be a place in my heart for this flavor.

 Top 3: Sweet corn flavored fries

Another flavored fries that I find weird but cool appeared on my list: sweet corn flavored fries. This one is sweeter than strawberry chocolate fries. The taste is similar to Regent's Golder Sweet Corn but in the form of fries. The sweet corn powdering is used to make the potato fries taste like corn. This is the flavor that I usually eat whenever I feel the need to become sweet in life. Does it taste like sweet corn or potatoes? You decide!

 Top 2: Sour cream flavored fries

My first impression on sour cream fries is that it has only one taste. But, my impression changed after my first bite of this flavor two years ago. This flavor is a bit more savory than cheese and sweet corn. A combination of savory and sour, this flavor made me crave for more. Opposite to the name, it’s not 100% sour, but at least there's some sourness at the time you start soaking the fries inside your mouth. This is almost good for me since it does not irritate my taste buds.
