Burger King, Chick-fil-A, McDonald's, and Wendy's — the fast-food giants — all offer signature takes on the classic food. McDonald's fries have had the same signature taste for years, while Burger King and Wendy's have changed their recipes in recent times. And Chick-fil-A's distinct waffle variation holds a fierce cult following. Burger King's are noticeably thicker and sturdier than the competition. They almost have the texture of steak fries.
The thick cut is a clear advantage because they hold up well: They aren't soggy or greasy. Biting into these fries provides a salty satisfaction for a $2.39 large order. We were surprised by how much the fries impressed us. Hence, Burger King wins the battle with the crispiest, tastiest fries of the bunch. McDonald's came in a close second, followed by Chick-fil-A and Wendy's.
