In the UK its crisps, but we dont call french fries chips - we call them fries. Chips are like french fries, but bigger, thicker, and tastier!

So in conclusion, I say crisps.

miss kitty

What the british call crisps, the americans call chips
and what the british call chips, the americans call fries.

Its wierd.
They are Crisps.

I suppose it really depends on where they were first made, and what they were called then. I am not sure, but I think they were first made by an african american slave, whose master then went on to make a fortune out of them.

queenie
