When people think about inventions and how they were made, they often imagine brilliant scientists working in laboratories. But in fact, many inventions were discovered by luck, by mistake, and out of frustration. Potato chips were invented in 1853 as a New York chef’s response to constant complaints from a customer who kept sending back his fried potatoes saying they were too soggy and thick. In the end, this customer got really thin potato slices, fried and covered with salt. Today it’s a well-known and ordinary product.
