Maybe yes, maybe no, we won't know until we try it.

Putting the potatoes in cold oil is criminal

Only one time frying??

Why don’t they just coat it in sugar.

Changing pH of potato is a good way to get some crisp on your fries. But you can do that with vinegar, or citric acid powder. The sugar would burn in the oil. This is a waste of cola.
IMHO it’s better to raise the pH with base instead of lower the pH with acids when cooking potato. Parboiling the potato in baking soda before frying is the better play. Makes them super crispy.

they have to be precooked

I got my fill of cringe when i saw the chopping skills.

Do you drink the coke after the potatoes have bathed in it?
tufffffff
These probably arent bad at all. Ever had cherry coke chicken wings? Yum

McDonald’s adds sugar to their fries. People seem to like them.

Coked up fries

The edit between the first batch of raw potatoes dumped in the cold oil and the batch being finished is hilarious.
If you’ve ever made fries that didn’t come from a bag.

Hang on, hang on – is this *maybe* the greatest thing we’ve ever seen, with the exception of the cold oil bullshittery, which was indeed idiotic, as u/TwinkiesSucker pointed out? The soda pulling out the starches, is that happening aggressively? And is there some caramelization that occurs with the fries, or is it expulsion only of the starches? I need someone smarter than me, stat.

Those porky fingers tell me that chief has too much coke lol

When I season French fries with coke they make the mouth tingly and numb so you risk biting your tongue.

Fries with coke.. Coke and fries..? Coke and fries Halo??
CommonSenseNotSo
Sugar is a browning agent…it probably helps give the fries a better crunch and golden hue. A lot of fast food restaurants do a sugar bath (of sorts) and par-fry their fries before shipping. Although, I’m not loving the fact that they will taste like cola.

Very much stupid food. Now, pass them over here.

Arrest immediately

Good thing they locked in all the extra oil

This definitely seems pretty stupid..

Unique doesn’t translate to stupid

I mean they’d taste like the original McDonald’s fries, so I’d say they probably be bomb af…

I vote stupid. Not for the coke but for poor frying technique. Cold oil. Didn’t season after cooking (or didn’t show it).

It takes a LOT to ruin fried potatoes.
This accomplished that.

They can’t be worse than McDonald’s.

Ok so your recipe is to waste coke for no reason. And I mean both cokes.
daddyofgiants
Now I’m curious what it tastes like
wizardrous
People make pasta with Coke, so this isn’t any stupider than that. That being said, that’s still pretty damn stupid.
Resident_Layer1700
No salt Or black pepper
bensonprp
The stupid started with them cutting the potatoes.
Charming-Package6905
That isn’t really dumb, soaking potatoes in salt/sugar water actually changes how they fry up. I think McDonald’s does this with their fries at the factories.
