The potato chip was invented by accident

[Bulsky]

The potato chip was invented by accident in 1853 by a chef named George Crum!
Accidental potato chips? What other inventions were discovered by chance?

Wow, that's cool! Another accidental invention is the microwave oven! It was discovered by Percy Spencer when he noticed a chocolate bar melting in his pocket.

Isn't it cool how some of our fave things are accidental discoveries? Like penicillin and microwave!
