And crisps are your chips/potato chips?

edit: 😕
Yes,I usually mean potato chips or corn chip when I say chips.The bigger "French fries" are called "Steak fries" here.More popular are "Waffle fries" which are criss cross cut like little waffles.It has greater surface area for more grease and more salt.

I know that salt and vinegar are popular condiments for French Fries
on the US east coast area. I always thought Britts put vinegar on their"chips." ??? 😕

Edit: I spelled potato with an "E" at the end

Yes, that's it.

Don't worry, Bowmann's already pointed out my foolishness - the bastard.

You're mistaken. Pickle juice is more commonly drunk in the UK as a morning "pick me up". I find it really sets me up for the day and is available in most good DIY stores

I may wish to add that the A1 is in fact not a motorway. If it was, the suffix "M" would have been used. 😉

For example the M40 from up north becomes the A40 as it approaches London. On the side of the road is clearly seen a sign indicating end of motorway.

Useless unnutritional calories. My favourite all time crisps tho, have to be pickled onion flavoured monster munch.
I prefer the Beef flavour - it's become quite rare (maybe even endangered), I can only now find them in the multipack - I'll send you the pickled onion bags - I'm not such a fan

What's your favourite flavour/brand?
Well, if you're talking about chips I like them with a bit of vinegar on them.

If you're talking about crisps I like Salt 'n' vinegar. (although when stoned Cheese and onion is preferable).

In Thailand I saw Salmon terikyaki flavoured crisps and "Grilled lobster" flavoured crisps. Both worth a try, but not something for a daily basis.
