    French fries are one of the most popular side dishes in the world. But where did they come from? And why do they call them French fries?

    French fries actually have nothing to do with France. One theory is that they were invented in Belgium, where fried potatoes are a popular dish. It’s said that American soldiers stationed in Belgium during World War I tried them and liked them so much that they brought the dish back to the States.

    Another theory is that French fries were invented in the United States. This theory claims that early American settlers fried potatoes as a way to preserve them.
    Whatever the true story is, one thing is for sure: French fries are delicious!
