The son of an African-American father and a Native American mother, Crum was working as the chef in the summer of 1853 when he incidentally invented the chip. It all began when a patron who ordered a plate of French-fried potatoes sent them back to Crum's kitchen because he felt they were too thick and soft.
A black invented potato chips. Shocker.
What a huge fucking contribution to society.

As if no one would have ever figured out how to deep fry a slice of fucking potato.

idiot.
