Hey friends !
Have you ever felt bad because you made a mistake?
Remember, some of our favorite foods were discovered by accident.
About popsicles:
In 1905 an eleven-year-old Frank Epperson was mixing powdered soda and water to make soda pop. Frank accidentally left the mixing bucket outside. During the night the mixture froze solid, with the wooden stirring stick standing straight up. But the frozen pop tasted great! Frank started selling Epperson icicles for five cents, later changing the name to popsicles.
I'm sure many of you here likes to eat potato chips. But, do you know how potato chips were discovered?
About potato chips:
One day in 1853, a diner at Moon Lake Lodge in Saratoga Springs, New York, refused to eat an order of French fries because they were too thick. The chef, George Crum, fried a thinner batch, but the customer also rejected these. Crum decided to teach the diner a lesson. He sliced a potato paper-thin and fried it so heavily it could not be cut with a fork. But the customer loved them. Soon other customers were asking for potato chips.
That was how the popsicles and potato chips were discovered!
Bye:)
