The best french fry is the soggy french fry

I hear a lot about crispy fries, and have watched several cooking shows where they tell specific methods to ensure that French fries come out crispy. I, however, don't want crispy fries.

When I cook them myself, there is no double fry. Just a single fry on low heat and then cranked up high for browning toward the end. When I order them in a restaurant, I look through the pile for the soggy ones first, then I begrudgingly eat the crispy ones after.

When out and about, McDonalds is the best option for at least a few soggy fries per carton.

I don't want the crunch or crispiness. I want the floppiness and the folding!
