Potato Chips


The man who invented potato chips was George Crum, who was both African-American and Native American, and a chef employed as a chef at Moon Lake Lodge --an elegant resort in Saratoga Springs, New York. 

After getting complaints from a customer about thick, soggy fried potatoes, Crum wanted to teach the patron a lesson, so he sliced a new batch of potatoes as thin as he possibly could, and then fried them until they were hard and crunchy. 

Finally, to top them off, he added a generous heaping of salt. 

To Crum's surprise, the dish ended up being a hit with the patron and a new snack was born.
