British Fish and Chips

Or if you're British.

@NocturnalNomad: I don't understand why Brits call them chips though. They're not shaped like a chip. Unless they're waffle fries. Those are shaped like chips. And waffle fries are the BEST.

@BlueMetalChick: Excuse me, British chips are not the same as American chips. The Americans stole the word and gave it a new meaning. If the Brits ever take the USA back, we'll revert to the correct meaning of the word 'Chip' 😉

@BlueMetalChick: of course they're chip shaped. Fries are thin skinny things, proper chips are chips and then you have crisps :)

@BlueMetalChick: I don't understand why Americans call them chips though. They don't even look like chips, they look like crisps. :p

@Bigrobbie: The Brits stole potato chips from the Americans and obnoxiously called them "crisps" for no reason.

@Babylon: A chip should be flat and round. Like a poker chip or a computer chip.

@BlueMetalChick: because they're crispy

@NocturnalNomad: They're shaped like a chip. And the man who invented them called them chips, not crisps. I guess the limeys needed to change that just to be faggots about it.

@BlueMetalChick: a bundle of sticks?

@NocturnalNomad: No, a bundle of sticks is a fag. A faghot technically is a gay man but the internet seems to have changed that lol

@BlueMetalChick: nope, chips were chips in Britain before you Americans invented your chip

@BlueMetalChick: This is getting awfully confusing, and now you started to talk about faggots. A faggot is traditionally made from pig's heart, liver and fatty belly meat or bacon minced together, with herbs added for flavouring and sometimes bread crumbs. Also inverted in England. No doubt other countries have flat faggots, but they're not really faggots then😉

@BlueMetalChick: Oh no, another type of faggot.

@Bigrobbie: A faggot is a kind of beach towel in my homeland, actually.

@Babylon: "You Americans."
I'm not an American. Try again.

Potato chips were invented in New York State. Y'know, not Britain. They were chips before they were crisps. Sorry.

@BlueMetalChick: I'm going to have to lie down in a minute, all this is wearing me out 😎

@BlueMetalChick: but British chips were chips before there were French fries or American chips

@BlueMetalChick: Traditionally, chips in the United Kingdom are cut much thicker and are typically between 10 and 15 mm (3/8–1/2 inches) wide. Since the surface-to-volume ratio is lower, they have a lower fat content. Thick-cut, or beefsteak, British chips are occasionally made from unpeeled potatoes. Chips are not necessarily served as crisp as the continental European French fry due to their relatively high water content.

@Bigrobbie: Then that would be simply fried potato wedges, yes? That would be neither a chip/crisp or a chip/French fry.

@PissAndVinegar: I might give you that.

@BlueMetalChick: Don't get me started on those french fry things, that's a completely different ball game.

@Bigrobbie: Waffle fries are superior to all.
