Supermarkets
In England, we have HUGE buildings called supermarkets. Supermarkets have loads of shelves with lots of food on them. When you need some food, you go to a supermarket, find the food you were looking for, and take it to the checkout. At the checkout, a worker scans your food for the barcode, which tells him the price and you give him the right amount of money.

Food TraditionsSunday roast
On Sundays, we have a tradition of eating a dinner of roasted meat, normally either chicken, pork, beef, ham or turkey. This tradition comes from the idea of the Christian ‘day of rest’, with the roast as a big, hearty meal for all the family to enjoy.
Fish and chips
We also have the tradition of eating fish and chips on Friday. I don’t know where it came from, but it’s certainly caught on! Fish and chips are famously served with peas, salt and vinegar and (though I don’t like it) tartar sauce. Now, they are served with tomato sauce, salad cream, lemon and even cheese!
