French fries are backPosted Aug 2nd 2006 2:02PM by Nick VagnoniFiled under: Restaurants, Vegetables, Frying, Newspapers, AmericaToday's Washington Times features an odd little story about how congressional cafeterias in Washington, D.C., have apparently abandoned the terms "freedom fries" and "freedom toast" and returned to using the word French to describe the fried treats. Times reporter Christina Bellantoni didn't have much luck getting comments from either of the politicians that introduced the patriotic name change back in March 2003, however. "I really don't see how this is a story," one representative's spokesman said. Still, regardless of how the shift in menus came about, it appears that changes have been made.
