Same here. Not Canadian though, I just have good taste and a penchant to apologize. Sorry.
It's ok, I'm sorry too.
American, and this is the correct answer
In Belgium: Tartare or Mayo. Andalouse for the gal, thanks
In the UK: Salt and Vinegar
In both cases: I will have to change seat if you plop yourself in front of me with your poor fries inundated by ketchup. Only the French do that, and it is a Casus Belli in my book.
Mayonnaise. Fight me.
Mayo + Ketchup combined, the classic "Rot-Weis"-combo in Germany.
That or, preferrably, mayo + a good chilli sauce
Fry sauce (ketchup+mayo) with pickle juice. ๐
This combination of sauces contains ketchup.
it is pretty good on fries, though
Salt
peanut sauce / satay sauce
nothing beats it
The kid's plate at my usual Thai place is satay and fries. I've definitely stolen a few fries and can confirm this is a pretty good combo
Gravy or curry sauce
Gravy and squeaky cheese curds
Found the Canadian
I haven't seen anyone mention nutritional yeast yet, but that's become my go-to seasoning for almost everything; popcorn, pizza, scrambled eggs, bread, ramen, soft pretzels, and of course on fries. So damn good!
(Yes, I realize the name "nutritional yeast" sounds vaguely unpleasant and unappetizing, but I promise it's incredible if you like savory flavors, and it can also be used as a cheese powder substitute in vegan recipes.)
Chili and cheese
War
No really, that's a thing.
Basically mayo, peanut sauce and diced onions (some add ketchup or curry sauce too, but I don't like that, personally)
Mayo mixed with red curry paste
Curry sauce
Ranch dressing and Buffalo sauce
Seasoning salt
If it's just fries, then nothing other than salt.
Otherwise, cheese curds and gravy.
chili cheese!!
Spicy BBQ
Green chile and cheese.
Old Bay
Salt
