Ditto for "french toast," which will be known as "freedom toast."

Am I the only one who wonders:
Fries aren't free, neither is toast. So the name change must have something to do with France... Now let's see: the items remain the same, so nothing has changed. Therefore France/french must equal freedom!
And look and behold:
France has an opinion! Sounds like
free speech to me!
How nice of the American government to realise that someone might not agree with them, but it's okay because everyone is allowed their opinion. Even better: they change the menus to show appreciation for France! Yeah!
Or am I getting something wrong here?
P.S. I'm not really fond of France myself, but I wish more countries in the world had the guts to say what they think!
