Platinum VIP Dest!Ny Posted December 6, 2014 Platinum VIP Posted December 6, 2014 Friet is a word only used in flanders and the bottom 3 provinces of the Netherlands, the rest generally uses patat, also saying that patat means potato is something that is only correct in these parts of belgium and the netherlands.
