Texans Love Eating America’s Most Unhealthy Fries

I don't know about you all, but when I decide to go to a fast-food place, French fries are one of my favorite things. Of course not all fast-food joints sell fries, but I tend to favor those that do.

There have been many times when I'm thinking of what to eat in Tyler, Texas and the quality of the fries alone has swayed my opinion. My go-to for fries will always be Chick-fil-A, McDonald's, and Whataburger. For tater tots though, I'm going to Sonic.

It turns out that some of these fries are pretty bad for us though

I know, shocking.

I really hope no one out there is consuming fast-food French fries for, 'health.' Now, if you're making some homemade baked or air-fried fries, you get a pass.

It should be known that most of the time these quick-grab fries are full of fats, grease, sodium, and who knows what else. But they sure do taste good as a treat.

So the next time you get a craving for fries and want to go for the "healthiest," fast-food option, there are several places you might want to avoid.

I was kind of surprised by some fries at the top of the list versus the bottom

Delish compiled a list of the most unhealthy fries in America, consisting of 23 different fries -- a majority of which are found in Texas. In all honesty, some of the fries at the top of the list (most unhealthy) were ones I thought would have been closer to the bottom, and vice versa.

For example, the most unhealthy fries are from Five Guys -- the regular Five Guys Style fries. I've never gone to Five Guys, but I have lots of friends who love it. With the reviews of others, I always considered it to be slightly above typical fast food, but I was apparently wrong.

So here are the top 5 most unhealthy fries in America, and subsequently Texas, according to Delish:

1. Five Guys -- Regular Five Guys Style
2. Steak & Shake -- Medium French Fries
3. Bojangles -- Seasoned Fries
4. Smosh Burger -- FrenchFries
5. KFC -- Secret Recipe Fries

And just for comparison, the bottom 5 on the list of the 'Most Unhealthy Fries in America,' are:

1.  Cane's -- Crinkle Cut Fries
2. Whataburger -- Medium French Fries
3. Church's Chicken -- French Fries
4. McDonald's -- Medium Fries
5. In-N-Out -- French Fries (most 'healthy' on the unhealthy list)
