Who Came Up With Potato Chips?

What started as a thinly sliced kitchen experiment in the 1800s has become one of the most beloved (and salty) snacks on Earth. In this episode of Who Came Up With That?, we crunch through the full story of the potato chip — from its first recorded recipe in 1817 to the flavor wars of the 20th century, the invention of Pringles, global naming confusion (chips vs. crisps vs. chippies), and even the health scares that put this snack under a microscope.

This is the complete, surprisingly dramatic history of the potato chip — and how it became the crunchy global phenomenon it is today.
