First off, let me clarify. When I say "Chips", I mean "Crisps". I'm an american, after all.
I have to go with the chips. Variety, consistent quality, flavor options...
Fries just suck balls at most places if you don't get 'em right out of the fryer. It's too much of a gamble.
Gotta go with chips... |

Case by case. I can tell you after my second visit to a place.
Some fries suck. The sportsbar around the corner from me has fries that honestly, I don't think actually contain any potato. They've taken shoestring to a new level. Like an onion ring with no onion. Want some crispy ketchup? Go to Elroy's.
Some chips suck. Unsalted, too many little scabrous turds scattered throughout, green edges, mooshy, etc.
It's the places with hit-or-miss fries that are the real ball breakers... |

I can get behind that, although at Boo Boo's Dawghouse, the place around the corner, I have neither with my Jumbo Chili Cheese Dog and Italian Beef and Cheddar Croissant. I get an order of "Munchers", which are strange little deep fried potato (think tater tots), cheese, and pepper things, and they come with a ranchy cucumber sauce. |

Nothing beat slapping a handful of pain(regular) chips down on a fine deli sammich. mmmmmmmmm.... I remember Eric and Weber from New Bomb Turks and I going off on the merits of chips in sandwiches that we had to go out and get some.
Is it true that the US went without Salt & Vinegar chips for a looong time? I used to have to send them down to some friends. |

Down South we've ALWAYS had the vinegar & salt chips. My grandmother kept 'em around the house like some folks hide money or emergency candles. |

Good fries - yum *Ask for them "without salt please, due to health reasons", you'll score them right out of the fryer then can load it on yourself...
Good chips - yum also, but the flavor thing depends on what it goes w/ or solo --- Zapps are good. |

I really like Krunchers chips. The jalapeno (green bag) and bbq (red bag) in particular. Original flavor (black bag) is like eating vanilla ice cream when there's pralines 'n cream also available. Why?
Tato Skins are pretty good too, even if they are made out of potato dust.
You can't go wrong with OG Bugles or pretzel and cheddar Combos either, even if they aren't technically chips.
I used to eat the hell out of the Crunch 'Taters BBQ until stupid Frito Lay quit making them. |

Remember the OS Taco flavored Doritos? When they only came in Plain & Taco. Pre-dating the Nacho cheese flavor.
If only I had a time machine.... |
