The story goes that Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt was eating at a restaurant and sent back an order of fried potatoes because they were too thick. George Crum, the chef, thought he would teach his patron a lesson. Crum sliced the potatoes paper thin, deep-fried and salted them. Vanderbilt loved them! Thus the potato chip was born.
