No, they aren't. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 22/04/2011 10:18:45 AM
Americans don't have a thickness limit for fries. Well, actually, they do, but that's when you have fried one fourth the potato, and we call those "potato wedges."

Anyway, yes, the only reason chips are thicker than fries is because you silly people decided to define thick fries as "chips."
