@officialrs Actually, Fish & Chips isn’t British at all, the Jewish refugees of world war 2 made it & sold it in Britain, so it’s Israeli (maybe). @godsdead How do you feel about having one of the thickest people on TV bearing your county’s name? (Joey Essex) BTW MORE INFO: I LIVE IN DORSET!! OO-ER
“Fish and chips became a stock meal among the working classes in England as a consequence of the rapid development of trawl fishing in the North Sea, and the development of railways which connected the ports to major industrial cities during the second half of the 19th century, which meant that fresh fish could be rapidly transported to the heavily populated areas.
Deep-fried fish was first introduced into England during the 16th century by Jewish refugees from Portugal and Spain, and is derived from pescado frito. In 1860, the first fish and chip shop was opened in London by Joseph Malin.”
Only 400 years out there palmer 😛
