DAE think frozen fries are pointless in an air fryer?

My neighbor said they taste exactly like oven-baked, but I get way crispier results from fresh potatoes. What's your take on frozen vs. fresh for fries?

Disagree on the crispiness. Fresh potatoes always beat frozen for texture in my air fryer.

My air fryer makes both frozen and fresh fries crispy enough for me. The texture difference isn't worth the extra peeling and chopping time. It's just fries, not a cooking competition.

Nah, your neighbor is wrong. Frozen fries in an air fryer are a total game changer. They get way crispier than any oven could manage. Fresh potatoes are great, but they take forever to prep. With frozen, you get that perfect crunch in minutes. It's about convenience and still getting a solid result.
