How does the Polish Christmas carp reach Great Britain?
Tim Dowling of The Guardian in London describes the contribution of Polish immigrants to Christmas in the UK. "Poles are bringing a new Christmas spirit to Great Britain. Our children are learning Polish carols in school, and long before Christmas you can get a whiff of the sweet gingerbread baking in their ovens. Consumption of Polish food alone is up 500 percent!... So the British, who have had enough of their heavy plum pudding, are discovering new taste sensations. Curious, they snatch up Polish delicacies like the carp that has become a symbol of a Polish Christmas for the British. You can find carp recipes in magazines. It may well prompt some of the British readers to try out this 'odd' specialty."
