French fries have become an icon of western comfort food. What is fast food without a side of fries? Despite what its name suggests, French fries are actually not a French creation!
In fact, the first country in Europe to discover potatoes was Spain. In 1537, a Spanish explorer encountered the vegetable in Colombia. 20 years later, the potatoes were brought back to Spain and Italy. In the late-1600s, potatoes were cooked by Belgian villagers in the same way they prepared fish - slicing and frying them. This is the earliest interpretation of what we now know as French fries. American soldiers stationed in Belgium during World War I were the first of their country to have a taste of the dish. Since Belgian soldiers spoke in French, they chose to nickname it as French fries and the name stuck.
