minus-squareyoungalfred@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 months agoI don’t think it’s very confusing when you remember that we don’t get (non-hot) chips (crisps) as a side dish to any meal. Like in the U.S. you can get either as a side. In Australia if it says (or you ask for) chips, you get hot chips (fries). Chips (crisps) are just a standalone snack here.
