Review: Carl's Jr. - Bacon Cheddar Fries

Carl's Jr.'s Bacon Cheddar Fries features an order of French fries topped with crumbled bacon and cheddar cheese sauce.

An order goes for $3.79 but I received this courtesy of Carl's Jr.

Some fries hold up well to the steam-heat from being stuffed in a box. Unfortunately, Carl's Jr.'s fries didn't fare so well and were mostly soft with a few crisp bits here and there. They had a nice enough flavor though and weren't too salty, which is especially nice when you have topped fries.

The cheese and bacon were good in terms of flavor but the former was lacking in quantity, while the second lacked any crunch. I'm used to the not-so-crispy bacon at Carl's Jr. but the lack of cheese sauce was disappointing as I struggled to get at least a bit of cheese on every fry as I ate.

Overall, Carl's Jr. Bacon Cheddar Fries was just okay in the sense that you really can't go wrong putting cheese, bacon, and fries together, but it needs work. The lack of cheese makes it rather disappointing, especially for something with cheddar in the name.
