Or more importantly why do americans (canadians too) call them chips when clearly they are crisps.

The English call them crisps because the English are correct.



I call them chips, however. It's too ingrained into my consciousness to stop calling them anything but chips.

Smokey bacon represent.


In australia we call them chips too. :/ But we call biscuits 'biscuits' instead of cookies! It's like we're on the fence.

Sun Chips Original Flavor

And if we're going all limey on this discussion then I guess my favorite (whoops I mean favourite ) chips are curly fries.

I undertsand the "crisps" thing because chips (american) are crispy. We probably call fries what we call them becasue they're fried potatoes, or chips may have already been taking (A chip of potato, or something like that) But I don't know.

on the subject of foodstuffs:

'erbs' = call them Herbs please. there is a 'h' in it after all.
'cookies' = cookies by my definition are chocolate chip biscuits. not all flat baked snakery goods.

oh and i drink tea and eat kippers and sweep chimneys and stuff as i am british and very proper.

Negative.

Someone once told me that Bum, or being bummed out, is slang for taking it up the ass.
