    They named them freedom fries because France wouldn’t step to some fake threat. Just eww.

      Yeah, and in the first place they named them French Fries because it originally came from Belgian 👍

        Just to be “that guy” and in case anyone thought you were serious, they’re called French fries because the potatoes are Frenched (which is the style of cut, eg into sticks), also called Julienned.
