The original “French fries” brought to the US by Doughboys coming back from the battlefields of Europe after World War 1, we’re actually called Belgium fries.

Today we don’t call them Belgium fries but they still exist and they are “french” fried - except they are served with mayonnaise.

I prefer mayonnaise with my fries.

Nobody ever wanted to ban the food items. Just jokingly changed the name to freedom fries. I don't recall anything about French toast.
