In 1853, George Crum a Native American/African American chef, had a customer complain that his french fries that he orders where to thick

So George took the fries back and tried to cut them smaller, but the customer complained that there still to thick.

finally goerge went back to the kitchen to make the cutomer an other batch with fries that where to thin to even eat with a fork.

Goerge took the flat fry to the cutomer hoping that they will be happy with what he has finally braught back and thats what they where looking for.

Goerge got back to the table with the chip and the customer was happy with the final result. and that's how we got the potato chip today
