Roscoe Conkling
Comes from the time when wood chips were an inexpensive commodity
They originate from the Jewish east side of London

It's a misquote of the phrase "Let the cards fall where they may" which refers to one's fortune being told by a tarot card reader. The card reader generally asks her client if he has any preference in how she would lay the cards out and this was the usual response. "Chips" refers to chips of wood. This phrase also uses the image of a person chopping wood and letting the chips fly everywhere instead of trying to be neat and chop on one side so they'll fall in a pile. At any rate, the idiom means "let things happen the way they are supposed to happen."

Chips Ahoy! cookies are not Canadian; they are an American brand produced by Nabisco, which is a subsidiary of Mondelēz International. The cookies were first introduced in 1963 in the United States. While they may be available in Canada and enjoyed by Canadians, their origin is distinctly American.

No, chips do not harm your intelligence. They may, however, cause you to gain weight.
