READING:

The U.S.A. said a new GM potato is OK to eat. McDonald's will not use it. A potato company said the new potatoes have less sugar. They also have fewer things that give people cancer. McDonald's said it will not buy the new potatoes. The potato company did not say anything about McDonald's.

French fries are popular around the world, especially in fast food restaurants. French fried potatoes started in 1856. A little later, 'French fried' meant 'deep-fried'. People say French fries come from Belgium. Some people think the word 'French' was used after U.S. soldiers went to Europe during World War I.
