America had just bad eyesight or the belgian flag was already faded. So black became more blueish and yellow became white.

I really don't understand why Belgium is so upset about this. They're literally fried potatoes. Choose something else.

That just looks like the French took a cheeseburger and fries meal, stuffed the fries inside the burger, then replaced the bread with their own to make it slightly more french.

Yeah that’s correct, but now you can find plenty of different recipes with local flavors like here in southwest France

The frites seem to be non-negotiable.

It puts the frites on the sammy, or else it gets the French body-slammy

Frites frites frites frites because we are tired of always saying baguette baguette baguette.

I mean, it's basically a cheeseburger with an accent, hard to go wrong there. It looks delicious.

The real question is "why do every other country calls this infamous sweet sauce 'French Mustard'?" It's a disgrace to french gastronomy.
