Notably, French Fries are one of many foods whose name is most misleading, as the origins of this fat-fried food are in Belgium. The story of French fries creation can be found in a family manuscript dated 1781, which reveals that potatoes were initially cut into the shape of fish and served instead of the fish typically caught in a series of small villages in Belgium.
