No, me and my entire lineage calls them fried potatoes

>>36072169
Here, we call them french fries/strips

Also, if you'd have done some research, it would have been clear that 'french fries' is a mangled version of 'fried fish'.

CHIOPS

Pommes

we in germany call them pommes which is a french term for potatoes the full name is pommes frites which means fried potatoes

"Kartoshka fri"

Long dogs

>>36072169
i call them chips but i'm a burger. i also follow premier league intimately, drive stick, and don't make eye contact with people on the streets. my teeth are awful

>>36072406
Actually "pomme" means apple. Potato would be "pomme de terre" (which literally translates to earth apple or ground apple)

>>36072404
fried apples?

>>36072169
Patat

Fucking uncultured barbarians.

>Freedom Fries

Republicans are such fucking morons. They did this at my school cafeteria after 9/11. Was literally written on the menu.

We call them potato scrapings

>>36072751

You said it.
An elegant word for a more civilized age.

>>36072169
Yeah no one calls those freedom fries anymore you dumb memer.

It was a thing at congressional cafeterias for a brief period in 2003.

>>36072902
It had nothing to do with 9/11. It was because France did not participate in or support the Iraq war.

>>36072902

Because Americans are too dumb to know that "french" doesn't refer to country of origin, but to style of cut. "Frenching" is to cut into long, thin strips before cooking.

>>36072169
french fries or just fries

i'm well aware that they did not actually originate in France

>>36073103
Not really. Frenching refers to cuts of meat.

Julienning is what you're reffering to.

The French in French fries does come from the country of France even though the fries are from Belgium. It was just people making assumptions, like how even today most people think that "Chinese food" is stuff like general tao.

haha are you guys serious? where im from thats what everyone calls them I had a feeling it was less common to call them Freedom Fries elsewhere

>>36073447
>where im from

Where exactly are you from?

people in europe don't call the french fries.

Papas

Chips. Though technically they shouldn't look like that.

>>36072169
The best English translation would be "French potatoes" or just "French".

If you call your french fries Freedom Fries(tm), you are in a backwards shithole that thinks changing the name of a food is sticking it to a country that was smart enough to not be roped into a special interests war.

FRITES

Papas fritas dickwad

>>36073774
hhmmm your story checks out. A few places here and there still do that apparently.

I didn't think it was still possible for people to still be shaking their fist in the air a decade and a half later and cursing France for not bombing Iraq with them, but it looks like the few places that still call them freedom fries either forgot why they were called that to being with or it's because of other reasons that has nothing to do with the Iraq war.

I call them freedom fries out of a sense of sarcastic nostalgia for the early oughties.
Most people who do at this point in history are likely in the same boat.
You have autism, so this may be difficult to believe, but there just comes a time when something becomes "old" enough that it loses all original meaning and those of us who don't have autism use it as a fun joke.

I'm guessing you're some retarded kid who thinks he's being clever.

The only good way to say it:
Friet
Patatfags should hang themselves

Woah we also call them freedom fries

weird I thought my town was unique

>>36072169
>Freedom Fries
I'm from the heartland of America and I've never heard anyone who wasn't forced to say that, actually say it.
I've only ever heard people say either 'fries' or 'french fries'.

I usually call those fries which is short for French fries and save chips for fat chips, like the ones you get from chippys or with steak and chips. Proper British chips.

It does not matter what you call those, what matters is knowing the name of two superior side dishes.
