    Where the fuck are you going to find a packet of chips outside of a supermarket. Restaurants overseas aren’t selling this shit alongside hot chips are they?

    Also you can use fries, it’s not common and it really only refers to the little thin fuckers you get at maccas or some other fast food shitheap.

      American here. Yeah, chips/crisps are sold in restaurants. They’re usually bagged too lmao. Like the restaurant just got them from the supermarket.

        Please specify that is like super casual restaurants and maybe fast food. Not a general thing.

          Yeah. There’s not many fancy restaurants that have that. But, like, most delis and bakeries you go to will usually have chips like that.

          Sandwich shops like Subway are the only places I can think of. Places that are only expected to make the “main course”, as it were.

          Americans use chips like a condiment. They even have preferences as to which flavours go on what sandwich or burger fillings. They’re redneck sommeliers.

            Chips on a sandwich just gives it such a nice texture. Plus it’s extra salt and fat, what’s not to like?
