Origins

The dish originated in the United States, although it's exact birthplace is still widely disputed. Cheese fries have been said to grow in popularity in the United States after canned cheese products such as Cheez Whiz hit the U.S. markets in 1952. Don A. Jenkins is said to have invented a variation of the cheese fry (the chili cheese fry), at the age of 16 in Tomball Texas. Austin Ruse's from Missouri claims to be the first to serve this dish when working at Dairy Queen.
