WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The cafeteria menus in the three House office buildings will change the name of "french fries" to "freedom fries," a culinary rebuke of France, stemming from anger over the country's refusal to support the U.S. position on Iraq.

Utterly ridiculous.

I think I posted somewhere about the movement to boycott France...
I actually meant not buying French products. BTW, 'French Fries' didn't originate there.

"Freedom Fries"? I think the whole anti-French thing is just kinda silly and won't last long. There is precedent though. Many of you might remember being told this story as a kid. During World War I, Americans took to calling sauerkraut "liberty cabbage".

There was more. Many cities stopped teaching the German language, changed German street names, and a host of other *ahem* nutty things.

I bet Congress will change the signs back pretty quickly.

If memory serves they come from Belgium, but 'Belgian Fries' doesn't quite have the same ring does it....

Canada wasn't immune to these things either...

Prior to Germany's attack on Poland, Kitchener, Ontario's name was Berlin.

They never changed it back.

I guess it's true, you do learn something new every day. But howcome it was named Berlin? I didn't realise the Germans had any history in Canada...

Trev,
The Kitchener area in south-western Ontario is one of the biggest German areas outside of Germany. It also throws the biggest Oktoberfest outside of Germany every year too.

Just a half hour down the road, you would find London, Ontario which is the biggest city in the area. It's complete with a Thames river running through it.

How many French soldiers does it take to save Paris?

Answer: No one knows...it's never been done.
