A potato chip (British English or Hiberno-English: crisp) is a slim slice of a potato deep fried or baked until crisp. Potato chips serve as an appetizer or snack. Commercial varieties are packaged for sale, usually in bags. The simplest chips are simply cooked and salted, but manufacturers can add a wide variety of seasonings (mostly made using MSG and herbs or spices). Chips are an important part of the snack food market in English-speaking countries and many other "western" nations.
There is little consistency in the English speaking world for names of fried potato slices. North American English uses chips for the above mentioned dish, crisps for the same made from batter, and French fries for the chewier dish. In British English, crisps are used for the crispy dish and chips for the chewy dish (as in "fish and chips"). In Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, both forms of potato product are simply known as chips, as are the larger "home-style" potato chips. Sometimes the distinction is made between hot chips and packet chips. Kumara (sweet potato) chips are eaten in New Zealand and Japan.
