It actually does vary, in some areas they do call it "roasted" rather then "roast".
Also it is proper to say "roast" in place of "roasted", Roast is (n) for something that has been roasted.and is also (adj) for roasted.

don't really know but it might be, it can not be (roast anything) unless it was roasted first.
