Freedom Fries
Add to Folder | Comments (2) | June 17, 2007

You can get fries with your burger at a restaurant here, but just don't ask for french fries.


"Freedom fries" was a short-lived name[1] used by some in the United States for French fries, as a result of anti-French sentiment in the United States.
In the international debate over the decision to launch the 2003 invasion of Iraq, France expressed strong opposition in the United Nations to taking such action. The French position was not popular with certain groups in the United States, leading to campaigns for the boycotting of French goods and businesses and the removal of the country's name from products.
