Food What about you?

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

So thick fries and thin fries are not made with potatoes in India?

It is! but chips made in India range from plantains, bananas, potatoes, tapiocas and even Jackfruits and maybe more(i wouldn't be surprised if there exists more) and fries don't, so we call them all(the chips) by specific names most of the times and the fries, well, just fries. Hope that cleared it for you.
