Fortunately this is one case where regionalisms don't actually get in the way!

Woo potato-based foods.

I'm not sure if we should implicate it.

I'd say those should be retagged as poker_chips (which I did), and then either depluralized to poker_chip or have poker_chip aliased to poker_chips. When it comes to chips, we probably should specify what sort of chips it is. Perhaps chips should just be aliased away as it's too nonspecific to alias or implicate cleanly to any specific type of chips.

I went ahead and approved alias poker_chips -> poker_chip (and coins -> coin) as there isn't enough reason to keep those plural over singular, and even less reason to keep them separate.

I'm still not entirely sure what to do with chips, but it does seem to mostly get tagged with food. At this point I'm going to leave this one open for discussion to see if anybody has anything to contribute before doing anything with it.
