14 Foods Invented by Complete Accident

Walking down the aisles in the nearest grocery store, we don’t realize that some of our favorite products have a rich history. Apparently, some of them had completely different uses when they first came out. And some foods were invented by accident! For example, Coca-Cola was surprisingly invented by John Pemberton, who had a medical degree and was a pharmacist. Pemberton's French Wine Coca was initially used as a remedy for severe pains, headache, and as a nerve tonic. According to popular legends, potato chips were invented by accident. One claims they were invented in 1853 by a chef at a luxurious New York restaurant. French fries were one of the specials at this restaurant and people seemed to love them. But there was one customer who wasn’t satisfied with the quality, complaining they were too thick. George deliberately made his next batch of fries paper-thin. These fries were so thin, it was impossible to eat them with cutlery. Surprisingly, the finicky eater loved the dish. From popsicles to yogurt, here are 14 popular foods that were invented by a complete accident. #brightside A headshot of Ignacio "Nacho" Anaya, the inventor of nachos: By Unknown/Wikimedia, CC BY-SA 4.0 🤍creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0, 🤍commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=93017401 Animation is created by Bright Side.
