I only see one resteraunt on the times list that sells fries along with chips, and onto mccain yes they sell oven chips along with oven fries and as you can see there is a CLEAR distinction here between the two products, fries are not referred to as chips and chips are not referred to as fries, that is the point we are trying to make, the two products are diffrent and not the same, we would like our own page for chips and you can have this page to discuss the french fry. just because the word is interchangable in America the case is not the same in Britian, Ireland, Austrailia and New Zeeland. There is no reason for the merge what so ever, as you can see from this entire discussion page.
