Crisps: you call them potato chips

 

Chips: you call the fries

Island of Adventure is that Disney?

 

We had French fries till Gulf War. Then they became Freedom Fries cuz France was pussyfooting joining coalition forces. Britain stepped up but cuz they got no good food, we couldn't just name something Great Pancakes or Great Potato soup.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
