The most versatile of foods, creating chips, hash browns, and vodka, among other things. Which option is the best one?

IMO some good hot chips (fries for you incorrect Americans)

    While poutine is great, I think that’s kinda cheating. The question was about forms of potatoes, not dishes with potatoes in them. “Cheese curds and gravy” is not a form of potato, and I doubt you’d rank the naked fries underneath so highly.

      That’s because humans improved upon God’s creation. If we had an omniscient god, poutine would grow on trees.

      So the, you must discount scalloped potatoes with cheese.

      Me thinks you’d get disagreement on that.

        I do. Another tasty dish for sure, but the spirit of the question compels me to consider only the potato portion of the dish.

        Now, I am content to control for toppings/seasonings. I would measure scalloped potatoes against cheese fries against a baked potato with cheese, etc. Or any potato variety covered in cheese curds and gravy.
