sure, granted, but they've been used as a cheap easy replacement for the old school NY take out egg rolls which I love. they're more like lumpia, aren't as big, don't have the fillings, don't have the nice blistered exterior, and are a far inferior cheap out product being sold as "egg rolls" with no right as the egg roll dough had egg in it, and the tiny disappointing misnamed shiny ones don't
yes, a variety of spring roll, not egg roll, and they shouldn't be used interchangeably, but since the mom and pop chinese places got tired of making egg rolls, and found that buying the frozen lumpia pre made, and selling them as egg rolls worked out well for them, the true egg roll has become almost extinct. they're are places you can find them, but they are few and far between, and never in a million years would i have thought something so perfect could simply be dissapeared. it's a tragedy.
