Chicken and chips

The consumption of chicken and chips is a popular food choice based on its value for money.

[1][2][3] In some cities, such as London, on most high streets there are at least one or two chicken and chip shops, amongst kebab, pizza, Chinese, and Indian take-away shops.

A serving of chicken and chips is usually packaged in a small cardboard box lined with a piece of greaseproof paper.

A sachet of salt, a packet of ketchup or other sauces, and sometimes pepper, is sometimes served with the food.

In 2012, chicken and chips was added to the UK consumer basket, used for calculating inflation.
