Ding ding ding! It's a tortilla chip, which is the base for a nacho (a nacho generally has cheese and other stuff on it).

But a corn chip (aka tortilla chip) would be the answer. Your turn!

This is why I call them "nachos".

Oh for certain, I get it! Doritos are very popular here. Typically tortilla chips here are nekked. Flavored and dressed ones are nachos. Some it might be hard to tell if they are plain or flavored from the color, though. We also have different colored plain ones: white, yellow, blue, and red.

Looks like spring onions to me. Could be leeks though.
