Last time we mentioned Five Goys a comment-maker questioned their fries, of which we had had none. Today we went for some, 'though a bit off-put by the US$3.09 they ask. (What the hell, why not US$2.99, izzat thin dime their entire profit margin?) Once we saw how many fries come in the cup & spill into the bag we weren't so price-pissed.

Quality, not quantity: Pretty damn salty, quite crisp. Skin on. Greasy? You decide:

| Maybe an hr. after we got our order. |

Regular, not Cajun. Figured in ah Cajun-stylee could be too much for the wretched aging Bouffant gut. Later/tomorrow we will heat & consume them w/ blue cheese dressing as nature intends.

How does that Damnayankee fast food chain serving defrosted mystery meat and unknown freezer potatoes compare to In'n'Out serving never-frozen meat that was a cow the previous day and potatoes that you see getting whacked through the machine into fries right there in front of your eyes? Though I must say that In'n'Out is getting bloody well expensive lately...

Didn't watch them making anything, but we're pretty damn sure the fries are fresh. There's a sign stating "Today's fries come from ..." & the skin-on suggests they're shoved through the machine on-site.
We'd say it's about as good, 'though no chili options at FG. Buns possibly better than In-N-Out Urge. Tain't that cheap at FG either, but drink refills are free.
Goy's fries are better, I-N-O burgers are a little better.
YMMV
