      Potato chips are Americans' favourite snack (零食).Where do potato chips come from? In
1853, a native American named George Crum made the first potato chips. Crum was a chef in an
expensive restaurant in Saratoga Springs, New York.  One day,a customer did not like the French
fries. He said they were too thick. So Crum made more, this time, thinner. The customer still
didn't like them. Crum got unhappy. He decided to make the customer angry. So he cut the potatoes
very thin. The customer loved them.

chips. Soon Crum opened his own restaurant and made his special chips.

only in the north.
     A salesman named Herman Lay wanted to sell potato chips in the south. He sold potato chips
in bags.  His business grew.  Today, Americans eat a lot of potato chips every day.
