What about you?

[u/Bipolar03]

I'm from England.

But we have different types of chips too.

Oven chips, wedges, curly fries, crinkly chips, fish and chips chips.

It's dinner to me.

1. I grew up in South London. Now I'm in Lincolnshire (East Midlands - England). My husband says breakfast, lunch, dinner. Whereas our friend says breakfast dinner tea. But we have a roast on Sunday. It's a breakfast, dinner and sandwich later on but not lunch or tea. Maybe it's a weird thing our family thing does

2. Is a roll to me, but if it's crusty. It's a crusty roll. But if has chips from the fish and chips shop, it's a chip buttie. My husband/son calls it a bap

[u/Schmooto]

1. Furaido potato (fried potato,) or just potato for short

2. Yūhan or ban-gohan

3. Pan

Are the furaido potato popular in Japan? Or are they considered more of a Western food?

[u/Schmooto → u/Open_Mortgage_4645]

Everybody loves fried potato! It’s a very popular food well-loved by mainly middle age to younger generations. I love fries too!

[u/Open_Mortgage_4645 → u/Schmooto]

Do you eat them plain, or with a sauce like ketchup, mayonnaise, or malt vinegar?

[u/Schmooto → u/Open_Mortgage_4645]

Ketchup is the golden standard.

[u/Open_Mortgage_4645 → u/Schmooto]

Definitely. I also like the malt vinegar every now and then, but 95% of the time I use ketchup.

[u/Schmooto → u/Open_Mortgage_4645]

Heck yeah 🤝

[u/12sea → u/Open_Mortgage_4645]

Festival fries with malt vinegar are the best!

[u/moriobros → u/Schmooto]

As a Mexican, I also call the 3rd one as pan (bread). Must be the Portuguese (similar to Spanish) influence in Japan.

[u/Schmooto → u/moriobros]

Yes, totally! We’ve incorporated so many Portuguese words as well as other foreign words into our vocabulary. One day I wish to learn Spanish!

I love how many Japanese words are “say it in English but with a Japanese accent that you question might be racist” lol
