Whenever I hear Americans talk about biscuits I get confused before remembering that they’re on about something totally different
Like I legit imagine a bourbon or custard cream with gravy when they’re waffling about it

I have a good rule to remember what to call chips and what to call crisps:
Fish & chips is a British food, so the potatoes that go with it are called “chips” in the UK and “crisps” of “fries” in the US.
And for the other kind, it is therefore the opposite.
I looked up why Scotland calls it juice, or at least in my region, and saw this comment on a reddit post and oh my god its too funny @BSCTDrayden

Is it a hot take to say that i don’t particularly like cake
Aye a ken Ken, he used to sell me tins of juice
When talking in English, I just avoid the word chips and always call them crisps or fries to avoid confusion, even though in German the thin ones are chips. Fries are pommes.
And the drinks are called Softdrinks, or if it’s one with a fruit flavor, Limonade, though that’s more rarely used these days and more common where the brand names aren’t well known
But is a Jaffa Cake… a Cake? runs away
That’s something I sometimes see at Mediterranean restaurants as “Greek Fries” or something similar, and I tend to order if I see it. I’m okay with ketchup, but the herbs and feta cheese and lemon and such is great.

They’re only cakes because the manufacturers pay less tax on them.
I meant like proper cake
Depends, are you from the tax office?
You obviously need to eat my wife’s cakes.
Meanwhile, here in Finland, we call chips “ranskalaiset”, which literally means “the French”. So we like to eat our burgers with the French
Looks amazing. I generally like loaded fries.
