Brown gravy: Unranked -> S

Anyone who's ever had poutine can vouch for that. It's a damn shame that it gets so little attention in the United States.

 

[Martin]

Beef dripping dip is incredible

also ketchup is the canon S rank

 

[Dorron]

Agree with Martin, Ketchup is S rank.

(Btw BBQ sauce is TOTALLY OVERRATED)

Never had a good poutine (I know it's sad).

ketchup doesnt belong on anything srry fam why not just put sugar on your fries. even worse are the geniuses lamenting bbq sauce which is basically just ketchup, while praising ketchup. either ppl who put sauce on their fries have f-tier tastebuds or the fries they are eating are f tier.

hot sauce is an acceptable sauce for fries if needed. there are perhaps other acceptable sauces but none of the ones listed in the OP are such sauces even if they exist (brazil sauce? "hawai" sauce, a google search confirms these dont in fact exist)

 

[Sputnik]

Ketchup: A ---> S

I believe that Ketchup is criminally underrated by this VR. In the current metagame, Ketchup has several very useful attributes. For one, Ketchup has a more neutral, tomato-ey taste. This is beneficial for the fries overall, as fries are salty and Heinz (the only Ketchup worth talking about, other forms should be UR). Flavorwise, this is incredibly important; the sweetness of the Ketchup can create an excellent neutral balance core with the saltiness of the fries. In the culinary arts, balancing of flavors is very important. Ketchup achieves this with flying colors, and should absolutely be ranked in the S tier as a result.

Brown gravy: Unranked -> S

Anyone who's ever had poutine can vouch for that. It's a damn shame that it gets so little attention in the United States.

I'm sorry, but replays are required to rank an unranked sauce. Please provide good video evidence to the usefulness of Brown Gravy as a French Fry sauce.

Honey mustard (unranked) —> S tier

 

[WaterBomb]

No ranch?? Am I the only one who has discovered this divine combination?

 

[Ivy]

I just got the Travis Scott burger at mcdonald's and I have to say I agree unfortunately. BBQ sauce is somewhat unsuited for french fries in my opinion.

 

[Mr.Bossaru]

listen here, ranch isn't on the list, why, its S for sure

 

[CaffeineBoost]

My opinion:

S: No sauce
A:
B: Every other sauce
C:
D: that one sauce that caused mcdonalds riots

 

[Tacotaco]

As the biggest french fries lover, can I just say that french fries is one of the most magical food ever invented. It taste great with just about any sauce, but still somehow taste best by itself. You would never run out of ways to eat french fries and since it taste great with no sauce and any sauce, there would always be a flavor that suits your mood.

 

[MAMP]

chips and gravy is a legendary combo. with big thick chips, not like shitty skinny maccas "fries"

 

[Panic Station]

Chicken sauce Unranked ---> S

Robbing a Chik-fil-A is the standard set, but it's not considered hax if you buy a bottle of the generic stuff at the grocery store instead.

My opinion:

S: No sauce
A:
B: Every other sauce
C:
D: that one sauce that caused mcdonalds riots

Sounds like good arguments, I'm in

Chicken sauce Unranked ---> S

Whut do you eat it with chicken ?

chips and gravy is a legendary combo. with big thick chips, not like shitty skinny maccas "fries"

Dw we are opened minds so Chips and gravy is welcomed.

No ranch?? Am I the only one who has discovered this divine combination?

Ranch :o first I read this sauce name! You had my curiosity now you have my attention.

Ketchup: A ---> S

You forgot Garlic Aioli and it should be in S tier because it is amazing. Chipotle Aioli is also quite good on chips. Also are seasonings included in this list?

 

[gvmgvm40]

Where my mediterranean/middle eastern sauces at

Hummus for B+/A-, harissa and tzatziki for A+/S

 

[vonFiedler]

Super niche but any variation of Cilantro/Lime/Jalapeno Ranch is S+ tier for sure, only held back by the inability to find a good one in stores.

 

[zxgzxg]

Mayo: S ---> B

There's just so much interesting stuff to put on fries than just straight mayo. It really doesn't deserve to outrank sauces like ketchup or ranch.

 

[internet]

Peanut/satay sauce: UR -> SS

Personally have my fries as "patatje oorlog" with mayo, satay, and chopped raw onions (some places also add curry ketchup), and its common knowledge my opinion is always just the best one. Don't disagree with me you'll just look stupid

 

[Wigglytuff]

Honey mustard to S
McDonalds sweet and sour sauce to S

both of these happened when I got sauce for my chicken tendies but forgot to get ketchup for the fries. they work well and I sometimes even forgo ketchup in favor of these two (I think ketchup is also S)

 

[Deck Knight]

Salt and Vinegar from UR to S Rank. That is some good kick.
