I used that term the other day and my kids are still laughing at me. But they knew what I was talking about.

Anyone else?

I've always just called them fries.

And I still order French Toast. Sorry, I can't say "freedom foodstuff" with a straight face. Never took that whole thing seriously, actually I find it depressingly comical.

Sometimes. I got my college to change the name for about a week. It was awesome. But that was years ago.

Anyone who actually called them that seriously, instead of in jest, needs to have their head examined.

Fuck no. And I'd disown the redneck friend who said that for being to stupid to associate with.

Retarded is too gentle a term.

This being a family forum, I hesitated to say it was very Republican. :p

(if you remember, they were the ones who started that stupidity)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_fries
"On March 11, 2003 Representatives Robert W. Ney (R-Ohio) and Walter B. Jones, Jr. (R-North Carolina) declared that all references to French fries and French toast on the menus of the restaurants and snack bars run by the House of Representatives would be removed. House cafeterias were ordered to rename French fries "freedom fries". This action was carried out without a congressional vote, under the authority of Ney's position as Chairman of the Committee on House Administration, which oversees restaurant operations for the chamber. The simultaneous renaming of French toast to "freedom toast" attracted less attention."
