In New Zealand we call both crisps and hot chips chips.


I'm confused whats a Crisp? I know some countries call french fries chips too. Doritos are chips, french fries are fries. What the heck is a crisp?

crisps:

edit: and "chips" are bigger versions of fries. French fries are still fries (they're the skinny ones, chips are chunky).

Anyway.

All you UK people, I'm guessing you're actually English. North of the border (Scotland) we just call it fizzy juice. The only people who really call it "pop" are old people.

"Soda" refers to a very specific drink, usually taken with a dash of lime (or blackcurrant) cordial which is just the actual soda water without the flavoured syrup that makes it a coke/pepsi/fanta/whatever.

Fizzy juice. Or just juice. But juice is an umbrella term for all kinds of fruit/soft/diluting juices. But if I want a lemonade I'll ask for a lemonade. I know that in Ireland they call lemonade white lemonade, because they have a dark one too.


Huh learn something new every day. I had no idea chips were called Crisps in other countries (Regions) I thought everyone called them chips. I've heard of Crispers but that is a brand.
