You want Fries with that?

[2fast4u]

i read this this morning ...

French fries in the House of Representatives' cafeterias will now be known as "freedom fries" as part of a Republican protest at France's opposition to a war on Iraq. [...] French toast from now on will be known as "freedom toast"

liberty cabbage anyone?

if this carries on, did clinton and lewinsky have "freedom sex" and will they carry on and ban german food as well and naming hamburgers "victory burgers"?

one of the silliest things ive read in a while ... :happy:

I read something similar to this happening a couple of weeks back. That was in some generic American resteraunt though!

You can tell your Government is totally fucked up when...

/me shrugs

These aren't official actions, rather they are actions being made by the private enterprise. The boycott of french goods was not instigated by the government either.

I am just curious what kind of reactions will come from france when some of the WWII veterans mail their thank you diplomas (for serving in france) back to the french government.

I don't think french fries are actually coming from France...

Yes French boycotts american products sometimes but it's not related to irak thing.. It's mainly to express opinion on import/export problem in agriculture...

Anyway, whatever the reason is, it's very stupid... For example when french boycotts MacDonald they are mainly boycotting french... coz actually everything that is sell in a french macdonald is made in europe, it doesn't come from us... Same thing apply when americans try to boycott French products.
