When a staple becomes a luxury

This podcast episode explores the challenges faced by the iconic British comfort food, fish and chips, due to the aftermath of the pandemic and inflation. The rising costs of fish, oil, and packaging, coupled with increased lease costs and competition from cheaper alternatives, have made fish and chips less accessible to many people. Despite these challenges, fish and chips remain a popular and important part of British culture, with places like Perry's Fish and Chip Shop providing not only delicious food but also a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
