Just came back from Australia. Chips (or crisps) don’t seem to exist anywhere but grocery/convenience stores. So I never really heard them referred to as anything.
Restaurants exclusively serve fries as far as I could tell. Even with sandwiches. And they call them “chips” whether they are skinny or fat.
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.
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.
In America, fries with sandwiches does exist, but it’s more of a Diner thing, or restaurants that serve burgers and other entres that usually include fries. Chips with sandwiches is definitely much more common for cafes and delis where sandwiches are more of a primary menu option.

American here. Yeah, chips/crisps are sold in restaurants. They’re usually bagged too lmao. Like the restaurant just got them from the supermarket.
Geez okay, that’s, just wow. Like why? What sort of person buys this.

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