That's why the English Fish 'n Chips should be renamed Fish 'n Clumps. The shape of the "chips" are actually clumps.
And besides, the English just bastardized the American version on the French's Pomme Frites...
And so we arrive at your question. For also in the 1840s, pomme frites ("fried potatoes") first appeared in Paris. Sadly, we don't know the name of the ingenious chef who first sliced the potato into long slender pieces and fried them. But they were immediately popular, and were sold on the streets of Paris by push-cart vendors.
Frites spread to America where they were called French fried potatoes. You asked how they got their name--pretty obvious, I'd say: they came from France, and they were fried potatoes, so they were called "French fried potatoes." The name was shortened to "french fries" in the 1930s.
and as far as American chips vs. UK crisps....
While we're on the subject, potato chips (British: crisps) are a purely American invention. In 1852, a chef (George Crum) at a resort in Saratoga, N.Y., was annoyed when a patron (the story says Cornelius Vanderbilt) sent some French fried potatoes back to the kitchen, complaining that they were too thick. Somewhat spitefully, Crum sliced a potato so thin that it couldn't be speared by a fork, and then fried the slices. One can hear him mutter, "That thin enough for you?" But the patron was delighted, not annoyed, and the potato chip was thus born. They were called "Saratoga chips" and were popular in the Northeast (often eaten with raw clams and oysters) until the 1920s, when they spread through the U.S. and thence the world.

This is called a "Baked Potato" in America:
What is it called in the UK?
A big chip?

Didn't french fries get changed to freedom fries after the debate over iraq?

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.Neurotik wrote:Didn't french fries get changed to freedom fries after the debate over iraq?
