Can we talk about how much frozen fries lie? Wasted a whole bag learning this
Bought a 4 pound bag of frozen crinkle fries at Costco for like $9. Threw a big handful in the air fryer at 400 for 20 minutes like the bag said. Came out pale and sad on the inside, burnt at the tips. Total mush. So I tried 380 for 15, shaking twice, and they finally crisped up right. That first bag was basically garbage, so there went $9 and 40 minutes of my evening. The bag directions are written for ovens, not air fryers, and nobody tells you that. What temp and time do you all use for frozen fries so they don't come out limp?

Check the wattage on your air fryer honestly, cause mine runs way hotter than my friend's even at the same setting. Two different machines at 400 can give totally different results for the same fries. Also flipping them once halfway through made a bigger difference for me than messing with temps at all.
