In 1853 a customer complained his potatoes were too thick and soggy. The chef, George Crum decided to cut them very thin and fry them. The customers loved them. He then put them on the menu under name "Saratoga Chips".
Some say first potato chips were a recipe in Mary Randolph's "The Virginia Housewife" (1824). Mike-sell's a Dayton, Ohio Company says it is the oldest potato chip company in America. They started in 1910.
Whoever invented potato chips, they are America's favorite snack.
Be sure to have some potato chips today.
