That is just wrong. A solution to a problem that does not exist.

I hate soggy chips... got to be firm and crispy on the outside, nice and fluffy inside.

chips (+ salt)
------------- = soggy
vinegar


Anything else just doesn't add up.

If you come from north of the border; it is brown sauce on your chips.

Not quite, the sauce in chippies here is a very runny mix of vinegar & brown sauce.

There are two different kinds of chips, and only two kinds. Chippy chips - salt and vinegar. Entirely acceptable for them to be soggy. Takeaway chips - chip spice, no vinegar. Must be crispy.

I think chip spice is a Hull thing, but everyone that I know who has lived here and moved away always takes a supply with them, so I don't understand why it hasn't spread across the whole country by now. Buying takeaway chips in another city is a very disappointing experience for a Hullian.

Doesn't everyone know about chips? 180c is about the best frying temperature. This report recommends that they shouldn't be eaten North or West of London, due to the poor dietary habits of the incumbent population...

Helps if the fries are from a vendor in Belgium though.

Best curry sauce for chips comes from Hull IMO.

Excuse me! There are no such things as chips, across the pond Atlantic. What they call 'chips', we would call 'crisps'. What they call 'fries' are like .... something you only get in American fast food outlets. They don't have chips i.e. chips. Subject closed.
