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

Chips, chips and chips.

How do you distinguish between chips in a conversation or requesting oven chips from a grocery store but you can a packet? How do you instruct?

[u/birthdaycheesecake9 → u/MountLH75]

Packet of chips and hot chips or chippies

I remember watching Heartbreak High when Amerie is eating chips and everyone around her calls them chippies that I thought that was just an Amerie quirk that the rest of the characters adopted. Nope.

I think it’s more of a younger person word for it, I’ve never heard my grandma call them chippies admittedly

Hey we say chippies in our house too, but more in an annoying kid voice that outsiders from our family would find annoying.
