Moreover, french fries are no longer confined to the traditional thin-cut shape. Innovations include crinkle-cut, waffle-cut, and spiral-cut fries, offering consumers a variety of textures and shapes. These specialty cuts enhance visual appeal and contribute to a unique eating experience. For instance, the crinkle-cut design increases the surface area of the fries, resulting in more edges that can become crispy during the frying process. This unique texture sets crinkle-cut fries apart from their straight-cut counterparts. The waffle shape not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also offers a different mouthfeel. Each fry’s grid-like structure creates pockets and ridges, allowing for increased crispiness and a substantial surface area for toppings and seasonings.
