In 1853 American Indian George Crum worked at a Resteraunt in new york . One day a customer came who rejected the order of French Fried Potatoes as " too thick and soggy". Crum got fed up and fried and cut a batch that was too crispy and thin to pick up with a fork. This backfired. The customer liked them and soon they were requested and added to the menu. The chips were called Saratoga chips. That is how potato chips were invented 😃yumm!

Why were potato chips invented?

Potato chips were invented because of a persnickety customer at a restaurant in Saratoga Springs, New York. This cranky custiner refused an order of French fries because the potatoes were too thick. Chef George Crum made thinner fries, but the customer was still not satisfied. Finally, in disgust, the chef cut the potato into paper-thin slices and fried them to a crisp. He thought this would teach the customer a good lesson. Instead, the customer loved these potato "chips." The word spread, and pretty soon, many customers were asking for the hard, thin chips.
