POTATO CHIPS by George Crum in 1853 In the summer of 1853, Native American George Crum was employed as a chef at an elegant resort in Saratoga Springs, New York. One dinner guest found Crum's French fries too thick for his liking and rejected the order. Crum decided to rile the guest by producing fries too thin and crisp to skewer with a fork. The plan backfired. The guest was ecstatic over the browned, paper-thin potatoes, and other diners began requesting Crum's potato chips. Thus the history of the potato chip. TORTILLA CHIPS by Rebecca Webb Carranza decided to put to use the leftover and misshapen tortilla dough accumulating on the tortilla factory floor. No need to be wasteful, right? Thus the history of the tortilla chip. To serve your chips and dips check out Holidaze and Gifts for some great serving pieces from Beatriz Ball, Arthur Court, Chip Chillers, Juliska to name a few. HAPPY DIPPING!!!
