Not a single aspect of "French fries" is French. The potatoes are grown cooked and eaten in America

>>511341982 (OP)

I remember when stupid fucking Americans started calling French fries "Freedom fries" because France opposed the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

God we are stupid people.

>>511341982 (OP)
Just call them "fries" man. Everyone in France thinks they're Belgian anyway, even though they are indeed French, but it doesn't matter, nobody calls them "Belgian fries" here.
As long as you don't call them "chips" or "crisps" or "crusty tender dirt-apple sticks" like the British.
They're just fuckin' fries.

and the French allowed muslims to flood their country and elected a fag president with a tranny 'wife'

Every nation on earth is stupid

Look at you Mr English Speaker. You will bow to the NWO

>and the French allowed muslims to flood their country

Again, thanks to the disastrous American decision to invade Iraq, which led to the rise of ISIS and a complete destabilization in the Middle East, which created the refugee crisis.

Americans killed a bunch of daschunds after WWI because they were too German.

>>511344721
You're a fucking idiot

And whats the deal with French Onion soup? The onions aren't french. It's just burned onion soup.

>>511341982 (OP)
They are known as French style cut potatoes.
It's a technical culinary term for cutting.
The closest thing to an American fry would be a steak fry. It's thick fat and stubby and absorbs more fat when cooked.

Yea and without le frogs we wouldn't exist, also bless Napoleon

is was to add an air of poshness to an otherwise mundane food item. it's called marketing.

>>511343877

Correct. Israel benefited though. And so did Cheney and Haliburton

>>511343877
Why didn't they just say no?

>>511343877
Destabilization in the Middle East stems from colonial retardation though

Have you ever seen a French fry resist being eaten?
They could have been called "surrender fries" but french sounds more international.

>>511342776
they're flemish, not belgian

>>511341982 (OP)
I thought French fries were created by the greeks and they were called French fries to say the French had little dicks. French fries were much shorter and smaller at that time.

>>511341982 (OP)
they’re not “French” fries. They are “frenched” fries. In cooking terminology, frenching means to cut food in lengthwise strips (like French-cut green beans), which is what Europeans did when they invented it. Low iq burgers (all of you) got confused and called it French instead. Burgers understand “fry” no problem since they cook everything in seed oils and wash it down with hfcs. America has no good cusine of its own.

>>511341982 (OP)
here on the mainland we call them 'chips' because they are 'chipped' potatoes.

What you call chips are actually 'crisps' on account of them being very thin and crisp.
The more you know.

I don’t believe you.

Believe it or not, despite being called French fries, these delicious potato fries are actually a Belgian creation.

Throughout history, many nations have claimed the hearty fry: the British when served with battered fish, the Dutch when topped with mayo, and the French when sliced so thinly that the calories don’t even count. Meanwhile, in South America, tubers (as fries are locally known) are a source of cultural pride.

in old English, to ‘french’ actually meant to ‘cut lengthwise’. Hence, the French fry.

Belgian fries – les frites – were incorrectly named ‘French fries’ by American servicemen when they came to Belgium at the end of WWI. The French fry’s mislabeling was reportedly the result of the French language spoken in Wallonia.

They're probably called french fries because no one could pronounce "pommes frites", the french dish which french fries are based on.

If you don't believe me, believe this guy playing HG Wells in a decades old movie:

Destabilization explains muslims flooding into the United States and running for political office.
I think it's called Fatwa to move into every town and city in the west and be seen in the marketplace just for beginners.

it's actually a reference to the excellent film called 'twins' starring arnold braumchweiger and danny devito.

This reply in itself is a reference to another excellent film called 'the last action hero' which also stars arnold braumschweiger
