Looks like a nifty little thing and a nice spec. I was about to back since it's only 9 USD but the 20 USD shipping cost put me off.

It appears to be an acronym. But it's not immediately obvious of what.

As usual, you seem to have completely misunderstood the situation.
We're talking about C.H.I.P., not C.Hi.P.(s)
But you're still doing very well.

Over here they are called chips. I don't know why. What you call "chips" are called "french frys". I don't know why.

French fries are different to chips, or maybe they're a type of chips, a sub-section of chips. There's definitely a thread on here somewhere (maybe a few!) where this is explained.

French fries are cut thinner than chips.
Properly
cooked chips are 'healhtier' than French fries (it's a comparative matter though) in that they have a higher volume to surface area ratio, so less fat per unit weight, and ideally would be cooked at a high temperature (in fully saturated beef fat) so that the outer is immediately sealed and the potato inside is literally cooked by steaming.
Having said that, I suspect the chips in Kenny's chippie are soggy and lardy, and the attractive lady serving them would be a damned sight less foxy if he went in there without the beer googles on.
