When oil is hot, add fries and cook until deep golden and tender inside. Transfer to a paper towel lined colander and shake and toss with Fry Seasoning as desired, then dump onto a wire rack placed over a baking sheet.
In microwave safe bowl, melt as much cheese as you like, stirring until melted and creamy.
Place fries onto a serving plate, pour melted cheese over the top, then ladle lots of homemade salad dressing over the cheese. Top with lots of blue cheese and bacon crumbles, and garnish with any or all Optional Extras if desired.
