Tots and a dog at the pool hall. Wife with with the fries.

Split 50/50. Tots are usually pretty consistent, onion rings often are not and not in a good/variety sorta way.

But, if one considers the presumption of a top shelf onion ring then, yeah, onion ring.

OTOH, one can doctor up a plate of tots with all sorta stuff if so inclined.

My wife had tots for the first time last week. She was thrilled. I told her it was as close as you can get to McDonald's hash browns at home.

Those hash browns are really something. You really have to have a factory to get them right.

Anybody else like deep fried mushrooms, use to get them with my "Cliffs burger" when I lived in Houston.

Yeah, always loved them growing up when I lived in the Chicago suburbs and we'd get them from "Brown's Chicken", a local fried chicken chain. I've had a nostalgic love for them ever since.

Loved them with a cold beer at George Street Grocery (a restaurant) in Jackson, MS, back in the mid-80s. Haven't seen them on a menu in a long time.

I don't think this is a "vs" thing at all, but rather a "yes, please" sort of thing.

One of our local BBQ joints always had great tots, and they'd top with some of their rub. Went in this weekend, and they no longer carry tots. Just fries, as far as potatoes are concerned. Apparently this just happened this month.

We'll probably still go back, but less often than before.

Had a grilled

burger and tots tonight along with a homebrew. Pretty good!

Tater tots for me (I like both), but holy sh!t! I want to try bacon wrapped onion rings. Those look delicious!!

Speaking of wrapping stuff in bacon, I like wrapping big scallops in it. Really nice.
