M&S sells chicken kiev amid study on declining fish variety in UK
What happened
M&S has begun selling chicken kiev. Separately, a new study by the University of Exeter reported that the variety of fish dishes enjoyed by Britons has largely disappeared over the last century. Researchers found that the nation now primarily consumes five species: cod, haddock, tuna, salmon, and prawns.

Why it matters
The University of Exeter study found that these five species now account for about 80 per cent of all fish eaten in the UK, despite most of the fish being imported. This indicates a significant shift in consumer preference away from the diverse seafood options popular in previous generations.
