The other articles are French fries and Chips; that being how the cookie crumbled, shouldn't this one therefore be Crisps rather than Crisp (which brings to mind the adjective for me, rather than the edible)? Hayford Peirce 02:27, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

'Crisp' was how your red link read, and I remember thinking singular was right, having forgotten that the others were plural; I think WP has that singular-only rule, to avoid uncertainty, but perhaps we don't. Anyway they should certainly all be one or the other, yes. I think the others should be moved, actually: there's a good reason for the WP rule, even if it's no more than people not having to wonder which to use. Ro Thorpe 16:24, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
Okie, lemme see if I can get some more opinions on this and then eventually I'll do some Movin'.... Hayford Peirce 17:01, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
