Potato chips – the elixir to hungry stomachs

This invention has happened more as a prank than as an accident. Back in 1853 Saratogo springs restaurant cook George Crum was annoyed with the complaints of a wealthy customer who returned the thick cut French style potatoes which was a famous dish at that time more than three times stating there are uncooked. The frustrated cook has sliced the potato as much as he can, fried it and added prohibitive amount of salt which is considered to be not good at that time. Much to his surprise, the customer like it and ordered two more plates. The house then quickly became the specialty and the history is changed. Today there is a $ 7 billion business around the chips and it is the prior reason for Americans getting fat. So these are some serious accident inventions which changed the world. If you know some, comment down.
