Is this for real? If so, where is it used (I've never heard it used before here in the UK)? It must be at least informal, if not slang. — Paul G 16:40, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

"basket+of+chips"+smile|grin has 'smile like a basket of chips' 128.252.121.2 19:00, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

If this is the case, then this needs to be moved to the full verb phrase. I've left a message for the contributor here asking if the term exists outside the verb phrase. — Paul G 09:15, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Deleted after almost a year. (The def was wrong too: in itself, "basket of chips" is not a broad grin.) It seems we should have smile like a basket of chips and grin like a basket of chips, though. Equinox ◑ 13:16, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
