The food on the list called kokoretsi is a Turkish dish. His real name is Kokoreç. It is a kind of dish made from the small intestine of a sheep, wrapped in a shish and fried over a ember. It is absurd to market the dishes spread from the Ottoman Empire as Greek dishes. The site called Tasteatlas scores oils in country cuisines to give more points to many countries. Kebab-style dishes come from the east of Turkey, not from the west. It has no ties to Greece but spread to many countries by the Ottoman Empire. I can't take a site that doesn't know this seriously.

Fish and Chips for the UK always annoys me as it's never cooked at home and therefore shouldn't be considered our national dish. I wish that our roast dinner was more prominent in this regard as it's something most families eat every Sunday togetger. Fish and Chips is something we only get when we're being lazy and is beaten in popularity by Indian food as a take-away.
