Do you think that French fries are really French? French fries are called "pommes frites" in France and
they are not from France. French fries come from Belgium (比利时) originally. French fries are made of
potatoes, and they are cut and fried. The fried potatoes are called French fries because they were fist seen
by Americans in Belgium, but they were fried in the French way. The French way is to fry potatoes twice
with a small pause in the middle.
During World War I, there were a lot of hungry American soldiers in Northern France and Belgium. They
ate French fries in Belgium. After the war was over, the soldiers went back home to America. However, they
missed French fries so much that they made French fries at home. That's how French fries were fist
introduced to America.
French fries were called Belgian fries once, but the name was finally changed to French fries. Sometimes
French fries are just called fries.
French fries are one of the most popular potato foods in America. American fast food restaurants such as
McDonald's and Burger King have French fries on their menus. French fries are freshly fried, and usually
served with hamburgers. If you visit any fast food restaurant in America and order a hamburger, you will
probably hear "You want fries with that?" Why don't you think about the history of French fries a little while,
and say "Yes, please. Thank you." |
