Freedom fries! WHAT! Did I here right? Is the French fry ,which you Europeans call the chip, going to have a corny name like the freedom fry!

Due to present events of war Americans have sought to change the name of our beloved food. But will they stop there? Will this be the end to great names like hamburger! If this freedom fry and freedom toast ideas become more than just an idea, what is going to stop them from changing the names of other foods. Lets just hope one day the world doesn't end up like this:


Burgered Sandwich

After an hour meeting with US senates and angry peace loving vegetarians, the hamburger will not be removed from fast food shops, but it will be changed to the name burgered sandwich because having the word "ham" inside a peace of food threatens some. And we don't want that do we. Say goodbye to the word hamburger, which use to slide off your tongue. It has been replaced by a four syllable compound word that reminds many about rancid milk.


Great

Cheese has now been changed to simply the word "great" because some of us just love our cheese. Many thought this was very clever until they found themselves saying "Hey, can you pass the grated great" and suddenly all trust was lost. Now instead of the catchy term Got Milk we will be saying the obnoxious catchphrase Great Is Great. Every time you say Great Is Great you could almost here the sound of people shooting themselves in the head. What a shame.


Chamana-chamana

Oh no. Please say it isn't so! Chocolate has been replaced by chamana-chamana! You might be thinking right now "What's so bad about some one changing the name of one of my favorite foods? It still taste good". But that's when your wrong! When you are about to eat your chamana-chamana someone my ask you what you are eating and when you respond "chamana-chamana"
you will be so annoyed and tired after saying dreadful foul contraction you won't even be hungry anymore! Darn you food changing cretins! You have gone too far!


The Armpit Of All Evil

Even though it's not food it is still on the subject. After the various destructions of American's favorite foods they have given the government the name "The Armpit Of All Evil" because it is so much more fitting. Many angry Americans dressed up like native Americans and secretly boarded a plane shipping Danish chamana-chamana to the states and dumped all the creates they could into the Atlantic Ocean in an attempted to anger the Armpit Of All Evil. There will be a trial held in November.



Changing the name of something won't make any problems we have go away. Someone can't simply change a curse words pronounciation and automatically say that know it isn't a curse word. It is still the same and there is no use trying to destroy a word that is like a tradition to some. If Freedom Toast and Freedom Fries will become new words for french fries and french toast there will obviously be many
complaints.

What's next?

That's plain stupid. The French don't even call them French Fries, that was invented by an American. They're called "frites", which, shockingly, means "chips". So, let's wonder where the word "fries" came from...

And it's seriously just cos they don't like France right now?

What's next? Bush repeating everything Chirac says in a high pitch? Or will he go straight for hair-pulling?

Yea i read that story too about some shops in America changing the name of french fries to freedom fries because they're not too happy with the french to say the least. Thought it was quite funny myself.
