Subject: RE: BS: England's Evil Empire
There was a chain of fish and chip shops in America, very briefly, when i was a kid. Arthur Treacher's Original Fish and Chips. Anyone else remember this?

I think this English attempt at world domination through fried food failed within a couple of years - but my family loved it. For no discernable reason they served hush puppies, which were not unfashionable brown brogues but rather a southern American corn fritter. Very nice they were, too...
