    http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/home...000524064/?k=1Here's a photo that came up when I googled Home Fries....Looks like steak fries or home made french fries to me. I have never heard of home fries.

    Perhaps it is a regional thing...like supper vs dinner. Where I come from a drinking fountain or water cooler is called "a bubbler". The utensil used to remove a piece of cake or pie is called...logically "a taker."

    Yea I am with the others who say that home fries are another name for steak fries. That is what I think of when I hear home fries.

    It must be regional. "Home fries" are not french fries at all here. "Home fries" are either shredded or cubed bits of potatoe served usually with breakfast type meals.

    I like them all. Even McDonald's hash browns!

    It's obviously an area thing. Just like pop versus soda. I never heard anyone say pop until I moved to Oregon. I had no idea what they were talking about.

    I think of sliced potatoes that have a nice ccrunchy edge from being in the frying pan but the interior is soft. Hashbrowns are hashbrowns, a completely different food.

    I love McDonald's hash browns. Their breakfast food is my guilty pleasure.
