That the potato chips were made by accident.
The year was 1853, and a prideful chef by the name of George Crum was criticized for making French fries that are "too thick and soggy".
In an act of revenge, he purposefully cut the potatoes as thin as possible and added more salt.
Instead of feeling disgusted, the customers of his restaurant loved it very much.It became an instant hit."The Saratoga Chips" were born.
It remained a local delicacy untill a bussinessman by the name of Henry Lay popularized the chips.
Moral of the story: Being revengeful only helps if you are an extremely good chef...hahaha :)
