[QUOTE=PaintJessGreen]Hmm so im eating fries... but why do they call them FRENCH fries? or is that only a canadian thing... :S[/QUOTE]

Because they were invented in Belgium, and they speak french.

Ya'learn something new everyday

Brain Toad 06-03-2005 04:54 PM

That was kind of a stretch of the truth.

[quote=wikipedia.org]Origin of the name

The logical explanation of the origin of the North American name of the dish is that it derives from potatoes that have been "fried in the french manner". The English verb fry is ambiguous: it can refer to both to sautéing and to deep-fat frying, while the french verb it derives from refers unambiguously to the latter.

Some feel that the word "french" in "french fries" is refers to the verb "to french", which means "to cut in thin lengthwise strips before cooking" (Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Tenth Ed.) On the other hand, "to french" is defined as "to prepare, as a chop, by partially cutting the meat from the shank and leaving bare the bone so as to fit it for convenient handling." (Oxford English Dictionary) in other dictionaries, seeming to suggest that the meaning of this process is not necessarily as set as it may appear. In addition, the verb "to french" did not start appearing until after "french fried potatoes" had appeared in the English-speaking world.

Many other widely disseminated legends for the origin of the name also exist.

By one account, the fried potatoes are called 'french fries' because they are commonly fried in the Belgo-French manner (that is to say, frying them twice with a small pause in the middle). This is plausible, and seems to suggest the word "french" implies the manner in which the food is fried.

Other accounts say that they were once called 'German fries' but the name was changed either for political reasons (Germany was once the enemy of the United States) or simple historical reasons (a traditional theory poses that it was in France during World War I that American soldiers first encountered the dish). This seems unlikely, as Germany was not as famous for its "french fries" as other European countries, in addition to the fact that German immigrants did not seem to bring the dish over to the United States.

Another claim is that the inclusion of the word "French" in the fried potatoes is most likely a confusion as to the nationality of those who introduced the food to American and Canadian soldiers in World War I. When American and Canadian soldiers were stationed in southern Belgium, where many major battles of World War I took place, they were served "pomme frites". Since the region of Belgium the soldiers were in was predominantly French-speaking, the soldiers brough the dish back to the United States as "french fries".[/quote]

No action here tonight :( quite boring

Brain Toad 06-03-2005 11:57 PM

I've been experimenting with alternate guitar tunings. I enjoyed Open G, I don't like Drop D, even though riffs are easy, the same with Drop C.

Biscuit_box 06-03-2005 11:58 PM

[QUOTE=IFlogMyMolly16]Duh, you should![/QUOTE]

Nah, i'm not punx enough to do it! I would rather sit at home listening to music or play bass than go out and get wasted. I'm not anti-social but i just don't like the whole going to a pub to buy over-priced alcohol and try to talk to people over the noise of the place! Plus i hate the taste of most alcohol.
