Thy Geekdom Come

Okay...so just for the sake of my own clarity:

Yankees: Fries (rectangular prisms of potato-ey goodness) and Chips (thin crispy discs of potato-ey goodness)

Brits: Chips and Crisps

Aussies: Chips and Crisps?

Kiwis: Chups and Crisps?

That sounds about right. Canucks call fries "chips" too. Context clears it up.

Not in Alberta.

Actually, IIRC, most Aussies pronounce "chips" as "cheeps" or, if it's at the end of a sentance, "che-EEEPS"

except when coupled with fried fish, then fries are chips. In which case it would be perfectly normal to put ketchup on your chips.

Iunno, I've heard that if you ask for Fish 'n' chips in some uper-states, they'll give you fish and a bag of chips.

laetitia crucis

NBC's "Today Show" just did a little segment on Poutine. Looked very tasty. :eat:

Then they did a little cooking bit featuring:

-- Classic Poutine;
-- "Breakfast" Poutine with all the normal stuff, plus crumbled bacon (not Canadien bacon - haha!) and a sunny-side up egg;
-- "Steak and Red Onions" Poutine; which Al Roker called "Philly Cheesesteak Poutine". The Canadien chef was a little offended by that... :hehe:

Where can I find this Poutine????? Is it ONLY in Canada? :sadder:

A little over the top for trying just one, no?
