It doesn't work with the joke though: Americans use the word "pudding" to refer to something sweet while Brits use the word "biscuit" to refer to something sweet. Fries aren't sweet in either of the two opposing dialects. So both should be able to see the appeal
While most of our biscuits are sweet nowadays, they’re not exclusively so and plenty of savoury examples exist.
The word came from the old French “bescuit” which was about the process of drying things out so they would keep longer, like on ships for example.
