The popular Dutch snack known as 'patatje oorlog' is believed to have originated in 1976 at a snack bar on Zonneplein in Amsterdam-Noord. A local man named Dick claims he invented the combination of fries, mayonnaise, peanut sauce, and onions, leading to the name being coined by an employee at the shop.
