Everyone is correct imo, wood from wood chipper would have some bits would resemble both, If you have a wooden furniture and it chips due to some damage, the part that chipped off can resemble either one. Theyre both crispened, so crisps works for both too. And theyre both "fried" or baked with oil.

The real question is why the heck do us americans calll them "french" fries, or for that matter, what is up with french toast, french braid, french kiss, and french maid. None of this shit is of french origin.
