As legend has it, “French fries” got their nickname during World War I. American soldiers stationed in Belgium dubbed the tasty treat “French” because French was southern Belgium’s dominant language, National Geographic explains. If you find yourself in Belgium, though, you’ll definitely want to call them “frites,” or just fries.
And for French toast, In the 15th century English court of Henry V, a version of the French toast called "pain perdu" or "lost bread" was the culinary rage. Then, it was called "lost" bread because the recipe called for soaking hard or stale bread in a mixture of milk and egg, then frying it. Pain perdu is what the French call French toast today.
