Crispy French Fries

Overview

French Fries (English: PotatoChips/American: FrenchFries) are a kind of food made by cutting potatoes into strips and then frying them. They are one of the most common fast food and are popular in the United States and Europe. Many of us know that French fries are called PotatoChips in English and Americans call them French Fries. In fact, their real origin is Belgium. As early as 1680, Belgians began to make this kind of French fries. During World War I, American soldiers in Belgium ate these French fries and thought they were particularly delicious, so they became popular. But they took it for granted and called it French because the common language in the Belgian army at that time was French, so they thought it was French French fries.
