French fries should be called freedom fries.

[Florena]

French Fries is an odd name for them but really 'freedom fries' is just stupid nonsense. If the name were to change we'd might as well change it to something that makes sense like 'fried potato strips.'

So yeah I firmly believe that french fries should be called Freedom fries. We do them better here in america than they do in French.

-_- its french fries or fries/potatoes deal with it.

[Xerra]

But.. if the package calls them chips do you still call them crisps? That would see strange imo

I beg to differ. The restaurant grade stuff is much better in Europe. The homemade stuff depends on how you cook it. (I refuse to deep fry my potatoes, I'll rather oven fry them.) The fast food stuff in Europe also tends to be a lot less greasy, salty or sugary, tho the American version is often crispier.

Uhum.

The stupid Freedom Fries shit started in 2003, when a bunch of derps threw a hissy fit over the French calling Bush's WMD narrative for what it was. Bullshit. It has nothing to do with 9/11.

"French" refers to the cut which is long thin strips. It's also called a julienne.

I deport thee!

[LickMeh]

Did you guys ever hear about "freedom pizza"? Because fuck Italians, America can't be contained and will take over everything

[Friendlyimmolation]

I always called them chips.

[Littleraven]

I can't remember the last time I called them french fries. I always just call them fries.

[Acidbaron]

Consider the american cuisine or lack thereof i'll stick to my Belgian version and continue to call them fries.

Freedom fries sounds like something you would find on an american theme rally. Call them whatever you want, considering you dare to call what you get from macdonalds "freedom fries", i'll keep calling those here frieten or frites depending what part of the country i'm in.

How about the White Flag Fries or Surrender fries instead?

[Lilfrier]

Let's just call them "fries." Pretty much everyone does that already, no?

[Xerra]

I think of them as fat sticks to be honest. Too much oil and salt.

Yet they do better at writing in the English language than you do.
