What's your favorite french fry condiment?

Well if there made from really good potatoes, I usually don't like to use condiments.  I usually sprinkle salt and some Cajun seasoning (Cayenne pepper).

Of course, I use ketchup at a fast food place. That's about it. Not very edgy huh. I'd tried vinegar with french fries. Maybe they do that in England. I found them soggy.

Jeff Wrangler:
Gee, not that I'm going to change my choices, but I just noticed that salt, salt, and more salt was on the list. Didn't even occur to me to think of salt as a condiment. I just sort of took it for granted that there was salt on the fries before anything else.  :-\

I don't know what Old Bay Seasoning tastes like, but it sounds good, too!   :)

Obviously, it's your German heritage coming through, Anke! From the Old Bay website:

Old Bay Story
The secret’s out. Once a staple enjoyed only by a lucky few along the Chesapeake Bay, Old Bay Seasoning is now available across the country to anyone who wishes to experience a distinctive big, bold taste. Best known as the definitive seasoning for crab, shrimp, and other seafood dishes, today Old Bay seasoning is earning its stripes as the “secret” ingredient for great hamburgers, chicken, and vegetable dishes. It’s easy to add the romance and flavor of the Chesapeake Bay to your meals every night of the week with this versatile seasoning.

Old Bay Seasoning was founded more than 60 years ago: a man named Gustav Brunn arrived in the United States from Germany with a hand-held spice grinder and a dream of starting a spice business. In 1939, Brunn settled in Baltimore and developed his secret recipe, which would later become Old Bay Seasoning. This unique blend of more than a dozen herbs and spices was created for a population passionate about steamed crabs, and has since become synonymous with the Chesapeake Bay and its locals.

Celery, bay leaves, and mustard combine with the heat of red pepper and ginger to tempt palates from grilled fish and steamed shrimp to fried chicken, potato salad, and vegetable dips. This unique spice blend evokes images of seaside dining, salty sea breezes, and sandy beaches. Yet this fantastic blend is also at home adding flavor to bounty that’s fresh from the farm as well as the sea.


Hm, they never mention french fries! LOL. I had Old Bay on fries in a crab house in Newark, Delaware. Since my husband is from Baltimore, Old Bay is a staple in our spice cabinet.

Pipedream:
Haha. Cool! I gotta try it one day!  :)

And guess what! I just found out that there really is (or rather was) such a thing as catsup! This is from www.heinzketchup.de:  :D
