This reminds me of the French Fries renamed Freedom Fries in the USA because of France opposition to the invasion of Iraq after 9/11. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_fries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_fries The funny thing is that this name certainly has nothing to do with France : "The origin of the name French fries has nothing to do with France, the name comes from the Irish. In the old Irish language, the word french means chopped. At the beginning of the 20th century, Irish people immigrated to the United States, Canada, and other regions. These immigrants popularized the term french fries to other countries. Therefore, French fries originally meant frenched fries, cut into strips. Frenched strips are larger than julienned filaments, so this is why it is called French fries."
