Is a kidney dish a UK thing? If it is, why do I call it a kidney dish?

Yes!! Free Dictionary tells me it's a British thing, and apparently American is emesis basin, but I thought kidney dish was universal. Weird.

Anyhoo, I'm going with kidney dish for my story, it sounds better. :)

I've heard it both ways and I've from NY. But then again, I've been through surgeries and things growing up so I may have more hospital themed vocab than most.
