So, Actual Freedom Fries now then?
Fries are Belgian actually.
It is a fucked up time we live when we all have to agree the French are right
Americans inherited British propaganda and gladly perpetuate it, despite France being the country they probably owe the most to.
de Gaulle smirks Frenchly.
Are we really going to claim that sliced fried potatoes were solely the invention of one particular country?
To be honest, Belgian cuisine has literally nothing else going for it, so I feel like we can let them have it. Just like that I feel like EU institutions are in Brussels because nobody will seriously think it makes Brussels more important than Berlin or Paris.
Ok, if we’re being generous. But they already have waffles named after them which no one disputes. And they have sprouts named after them. And chocolates. Actually I think they are pretty well respresented in terms of cuisine. I still think frying a potato is pretty generic though, and can’t realistically be attributed to any single culture or country.
