FFS I wish you'd never posted that video now, a related one caught my eye and I got caught in an argument with an American who is convinced that all modern day technology was invented by Americans. FUUUUUUUUUU-

It was after 911 when the French wouldn't back the states stance on some idea. After that died down they changed them to Friendly Fries, I think.
I thought it was just a joke, did some places actually change their menus? lol..sad.

Do you cook potato faces for all the boys?
If so can I make a special request and have just boiled potatoes instead, with a bit of mayo and some raw red onion - Only if thats not too much that is!

The countries who are responsible for coining the term called them 'frites' or 'pommes frites' so 'fries' should be correct.
Americans invented potato chips and called them.. chips.
*whipes tears* Yeehaw!
Oh and the rest of the world too of course.
Weird ass island folk, the whole lot of you.

Bollocks. Mayo is amazing, whether its used thinly to take away the dryness of a sandwich or used generously in shit like coleslaw or potato salad it gets nothing but big massive thumbs up from me!
