Okay Googleheads, I need help finding answers to trivia
I thought I was good at Google, but evidently not. I'm missing 5 out of 25 questions. They are:

1) Curly fries first became popular in the 1950's at what venues?
2) What is another name for a jelly-filled doughnut?
3) What frozen dinner got started when a restaurant in a famous chain had so many to-go orders they began selling them next door?
4) What was the name of the chracter who recommended Folgers coffee to housewives so that their husbands would be happier?
5) How many tater tots can be made from one potato?

If you can answer any of these, I would be very grateful. If you have time, tell me how you found the answer so I can enhance my google-knowledge.

Thanks for any help!

1. I think the first one is the drive up restaurants
Where the waitresses wore roller skates. I could very well be wrong it could be drive in theaters.

5. Swanson's sounds right
Berliner Damn! The first article was about that and I missed the point-reading too fast.

5 around 5 depending on how you shred the potato, how big you make the tots, and the size of the potato you're using.
