Should you find yourself with day old, heck, even two-day old French fries, you may want to reconsider them before tossing them out. Now, we all know that old fries end up having a funky texture along with being floppy and sad. Nuking them in the microwave makes them even worse. Let’s just say old and fries are not a good mix.

J. Kenji Lopez-Alt from Serious Eats gives a wonderful rundown on how your waffle-iron revamps those sad French fries into crispy deliciousness--pretty much fry waffle bites.
