Well?
I have to go with plain myself....unless they suck. In those cases I need ketchup, I dip.

| To be honest, of late I have been enjoying mustard on 'em. And, though I've never tried, I bet MAYO would be wonderful on fries. |

Interesting......although I do like honey mustard on fries.
Hmmm, wish I made that an option.

Chorrillana.
Chorrillana = fried onion mixed with egg, fried cow meat (the heart, most of the times). The "french" (¿?) fries (just fried potato in this country, since we are unable to find something french in the act of frying a sliced potato) are placed on top of this, and people eat everything and then ask inmediatley for the bathroom and that black rubber thing that is used to help in the event of obstruction of pipes. After a few years of this, combined with no excercise at all, people die of a heart attack while trying to pick up a coin or something like that. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

Why bother with ketchup? If they're truly good, a bit of salt and pepper will be exactly what it needs. -------------  <font color=white>butts, lol[/COLOR] |

I like them plain or with, God help me, ketchup. I've always wanted to try poutine, a Quebec specialty with cheese and gravy.. though the authentic version has curdled cheese

WHAT?!?!?! You've never had poutine? I thought that everyone has tried it...Hell, fast food joints sell it here, you can buy it anywhere. And the authentic poutine is by far the best - but there's no need to go to Quebec to get it, just order it at a restaurant instead of a fast food joint anywhere up north. |

I like thick white vinegar on french fries.Chili and cheese is good too.
I also like dipping them in creamy horseradish sauce.

Oooh - listen to Mr Posh! 
Right! Chips (not fries) should by law be served with malt vinegar, salt & good ketchup on the side; anything else is a criminal offence, and the offender must be forced to smother his chips in that curious Newfoundland speciality, "dressing" - ie, sawdust (true!)* *Peter insisted it was spiced breadcrumbs, but I know what I saw!  -------------

For gods sake - I've told you (and you're English too, so have no excuse) and you, Man-Erg; tomato ketchup is the only legal side garnish allowed for CHIPS in England; the only exception to this law is if you can produce a Certificate Of HP Sauce Exemption, officially stamped by the Minister For Chips

Nowt wrong with Mayo on chips, Jim. Or HP sauce, or even a splash of 'Reggae Reggae sauce' for that matter! You should try both ketchup and mayo together. Dont smother the chips, just have a generous blob of both, on the side of the plate for dippage..

For my tea I had a fish and chips with mushy peas over the chips. With a bit of mint sauce over the mushy peas. The best thing about was that the mushies were grown and made by me.

Is this a Brit thing or is the delicacy of mushies enjoyed in other countries - or is this another thread? |

There's nothing wrong with a meaty f@ggot covered in mushy peas 
...that doesn't translate too well overseas, does it? 
[edit] the auto-naughty-word-eliminator cut in so I had to spell that traditional north of England delicacy "F@GGOT"
