Just found this on a site about British Food:

"Fish and chips have 595 calories in the average portion - an average pizza has 871, Big Mac meal with medium fries has 888, Whopper meal with medium fries has 892, chicken korma 910 and doner kebab 924."

I should also think fish and chips are more nutritious.

Quite pleased really 'cos I love fish and chips but don't like pizza.

If you think about Pizza: The dough is made with fat and then topped with fat (cheese) and fatty ingredients are often put on top.

The only fat you get on fish and chips is from the oil and the batter mix on the fish would contain far less flour than in a pizza base. So if they are drained well then the damage isn't too bad. Fish and potatoes are both nutritious.

Anyway, I now have a good excuse to eat more fish and chips!!

Pizza most definitely.
