    Typical American fast food fries are a julienne cut. The tiny shoestring ones are also called matchstick fries.

      Shoestring, julienne, matchstick, haystack

      There seems to be some contention on this.

      I’ll just chalk that up to regional differences in naming. Like Soda vs Pop. I’ve never seen this in California. Where might I actually order “matchstick fries” or a “haystack?” :3

        Freddy’s Steakburgers is a chain that serves matchstick style fries. Idk if they are in California, but they’ve popped up all over the Midwest. I hate them, but several of my friends swear by them. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.
