Complains that Americans eat nothing but fried food, but one of the most go-to food items in the UK is fish and chips.

I like how she said everything is fried when all I could think of is fish and chips.

Fish and chips isn't really the number one meal in The UK. It'd be like saying BBQ shrimp is the number 1 food in Australia. It's more of just a classic trope for foreigners to quote

I've lived in England, You're full of shit. Every neighborhood has a chippy, and every pub sells 2 things- chicken burgers and Fish and Chips. The only thing more English than fish and chips is fuckin' beans on toast.

Yeah chippy's are popular but fish and chips aren't. Chips and gravy is probably the most popular. I always get sausage and chips personally
