It’s like pants. The online “divided by a common language” jokes about pants v pants was the first time I even noticed a UK:US difference because we use pants for both and i don’t recall ever being confused/embarrassed by it.

Ditto chips. Lots of kinds of chips, we somehow always know what kind we mean - the only time i remember encountering confusion in all-Aus conversations is chip sandwiches.
