Potato chips are thin slices of potato, fried quickly in oil and then salted. According to snack food folklore, the potato chip was invented in 1853 by a chef named George Crum at a restaurant called Moon's Lake House in Saratoga Spring, New York.
The first written record of a European encounter with potatoes was penned in 1537 by Castellanos, a Spanish conquistador. After raiding a village in South America, Castellanos and his party found the area deserted and entered the houses in search of loot. Instead of silver and gold, they found maize, beans and truffles. From reading Castellanos account, we now know these truffles were in fact potatoes.
