Used to be a topic on THP radio for guests, wanted to ask here. Could be anything from fries to mashed or anything in between.

Give us your choice and why.
 
I probably eat fries the most, but my favorite is a good old fashioned baked potato with all the fixings.
 
My personal favorite is tots. The are more porous than fries so they get a lot crisper when fried. They hold salt perfectly also.
 
Chips. OMG!
 
Seasoned fries.

breaded fried and seasoned

you Americans call them wedges, we Canadians call the mojos even though American mojos are a different thing
 
Oh man, this is tough. So many good options that are good in so many different ways. What it's paired with has a huge impact as well. A baked potato goes great with a steak. Fries or tots go great with burgers. Chips and a sandwich. Mashed potatoes and meatloaf. Eggs and hashbrowns. Not to mention the different variety of fries. Homestyle, french fries, wedges, shoestring, curly.

I'm hungry.
 
Sliced thin, wrapped in foil with butter, garlic, carrots, onions & on the grill.

I love potatoes every way you can fix them, but if I had to pick one it would be a loaded baked potato.

Waffle fry. Specifically from Chic-Fil-A.
 
Chips. OMG!
Chips for sure but potatoes are such a versatile vegetable. They're great any way.

Mashed. With everything
 
Being a potatoholic, it’s hard to pick one. But, I don’t eat them too often, and I’ve got a craving for pork chops so, I’ll go with mashed with good, homemade gravy made with the grease in which the chops were fried.
 
Cooked! About the only way I can think of that I don't like potatoes is raw. One of my favorites is cut like fries, wrapped in foil with garlic, onion, butter , salt and pepper, then thrown on the grill.
 
There is no sigular answer to the question. Crispy hash browns, well done waffle fries from Chick-fil-A and Hasselback baked potatoes to be a few.

crispy cooked home fries, demon carbs though
 
Baked sweet potato, with a bit of butter and brown sugar. Yummy and nice flavor.
 
Either criss-cuts or curly fries
 
When made correctly, hash browns are the right answer. Kartoffelpuffer (German potato pancake) are also quite good.

Twice baked potatoes. I not only get the whole shooting match but also the skins from my wife and daughter to melt cheese in for another meal or snack.
 
If I had to pick one it would be twice baked potatoes, with JoJo wedges a close second.
 
Au Gratin
 
I'll take them gently mashed (with lumps) with cream cheese, half and half, and bacon (or sausage). Can't imagine there's a better side dish out there with a carb as the main ingredient.
