I, unlike the members of Congress who declared that their cafeteria shall serve "Freedom Fries", prefer to avoid the sort of pettiness that is changing the name of a food or avoiding it altogether if it's loosely associated with a country that is at odds with the country I'm living in.
North Korea is a source of political concern for me, what with nuclear rumblings, but... yummmy.
(i recognize you already knew that but i just had to pretend to be an ass)- this ties into something that happened to me today at 'work' which i think i'll have to post in my journal now...
we did the same thing with a whole buncha stuff including sauerkraut during WWII. Didn't last then either, won't last now, no point in even noticing it. Besides, french fries came from Belguim in the first place.
Sound and fury, signifying nothing, and petty to boot.

Hm, does that mean that we're going to be forced to translate French loan-words into English?
Hmm, feel like a little cat-licking, sweetie?
Yes, cunnilingus is Latin. Shut up. It ruins the joke.
