They're technically Belgian fries anyway.

The phrase is French Fries. End of story.

No, they are chips. We don't think of France when eating our fish and chips.

Bah, be like me and try to learn French and Japanese together ^.~

Technically speaking, I can insult the Japanese in French and insult the French in Japanese... but I won't, because I like both languages :-)

It doesn't matter what you call them. A phrase is a phrase whether you use it or not. You don't think of France when you use a French letter or put French dressing on your salad either.
