I think I'm going to get sick of this frozen onion rings and potatoes binge pretty quick. I've just been baking the things I'm trying.

 

Arby's Curly Fries are okay.  It's hard to cook them evenly because the sizes and shapes vary so much.  The ones that end up just right aren't bad.  Probably wouldn't buy them again.

 

Alexia House Cut Fries are also okay. They're bit bland and don't really brown. Probably wouldn't buy these again either.  I wanted to try the Yukon Select Fries, but the store I shopped at didn't carry those.  I'll get to them sooner or later. I'm thinking later.

 

Grown in Idaho Super Crispy Crinkle Cut Fries crisped pretty well but have a slightly odd flavor.  Ketchup is enough to obscure that flavor, but I wouldn't buy these again unless I don't find a crinkle cut fry that's better.  My guess is that I will find better.

 

Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Fast Food Fries are the best Ore-Ida fries I've had.  Not fantastic but good.  Looks like they tried to copy McD's fries and  succeeded more with appearance than taste, but still, they aren't bad.  I bet these would be pretty good fried.  I'd buy these again.

 

In the freezer but untried are Nathan's Thick Sliced Battered Onion Rings.
