From what I know it's because most Americans don't like the French. So instead of calling them "French fries" (although French fries were not invented in France) we called them Freedom fries. The name was changed as part of an idiotic propaganda campaign.
Fries were always called French fries in America. until George Bush decided that it was necessary to attack Iraq. He attempted to enlist the aid of the United nations in this adventure. The French did not want the UN to be involved in a war of aggression and voted against the proposal. American interests were so annoyed by this that they changed the name of French Fries to freedom fries in protest. So besides not becoming involved in a pointless war the French also got a good laugh out of it.

Shortly after leaving, the territory where they had moved was taken over by America in the Mexican American War and they were once again living on American soil. Nearly 200 years prior to the formation of Mormonism in America, several religious groups came from Europe in search of religious freedom, including the Puritains and the Brethren.

The weight of a mouthful of fries can vary depending on the size of the fries and the individual's mouth capacity, but it typically ranges from about 20 to 30 grams. A standard serving of fries contains approximately 150-200 grams, so a mouthful would be a small fraction of that. Ultimately, the exact weight will depend on how many fries one can fit in their mouth at once.
