That's the thing. France and Belgium call french fries "frites" and "frieten", which just translates to "fries". It's other cultures that gave them (wrong) names because of how they got to know them.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
