Fun fact: Friday, July 11 is National French Fry Day! Potatoes USA is highlighting a growing snack trend – Fry Bags!

This Fry Day, try the latest tater trend, Fry Bags! Start with delicious fries and add your favorite spice blend (like these savory, spicy Firecracker seasoned fries). Toss everything in a paper bag, shake it up and enjoy!

Nothing brings people together like fries – in fact, 91 percent of Americans like or love them.

Enter Fry Bags: a crave-worthy snack inspired by Irish street food that’s gone global. Simply take hot, crispy fries and shake them up in a bag with your favorite seasonings. It’s perfect for solo snacking or sharing with friends.

“The Fry Bag has everything you want – tons of flavor, tons of seasoning, tons of spice,” said Chef RJ Harvey, Director of Culinary at Potatoes USA. “The best part? It’s completely customizable, so you can make it your own every time.”

Whether you’re picking up takeout fries or making them at home, Fry Bags make it easy to add big flavor to your fries. Just shake, rip and dig in.

How to make Fry Bags

1. Grab some fries. Buy a bag of your favorite cut from the frozen section at the grocery store or order from your favorite takeout location.
2. Heat them up in the air fryer. You want your fries hot and crispy before adding seasoning, so this is recommended even for takeout fries.
3. Toss them in a paper bag. Yes, just like the ones you used in school for sack lunches or use the bag they came in if you got your fries from a restaurant.
4. Add your favorite spice blend.
5. Enjoy straight from the bag or pour your fries onto a plate, if you prefer.

That’s it! It’s simple, mess-free and completely customizable.

One snack, endless flavor combinations

Fry Bags are easy to love because they suit every flavor craving from spicy to sweet.

Want to start with a bang? Try a Firecracker Fry Bag: smoked paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, parmesan and crushed spicy chips. Shake it all up and share with friends…or don’t. It’s that good.
