Tried dipping my french fries in a milkshake at lunch today and it actually worked

I was at a diner in Akron with my buddy and I ran out of ketchup. He dared me to try my fries in my chocolate shake. I figured it would be gross but honestly the sweet and salty combo was pretty fire. I ate half the fries that way before the shake got too watery. Has anyone else tried mixing salty snacks with sweet drinks like that?

Wait hold on, you started with chocolate shake? That's rookie numbers. Try a strawberry shake next time. The tartness cuts through the fry grease way better. I did this at a Shake Shack in Cleveland and couldnt go back to ketchup for like a month. The secret is to dip fast and not let the fries get soggy.

Respectfully gotta disagree here. Chocolate shake is the classic for a reason (the salt and sweet combo is unbeatable). I tried strawberry once at a diner in Austin and it just felt too fruity and thin, like I was dipping fries in a smoothie. Chocolate has that thick richness that really sticks to the fry and balances the salt perfectly, you know?
