"Sardine" and "pilchard" are certainly not very specific words in terms of species. They can encompass a lot of different fish where humans don't really care about the difference because they're basically the same when you're eating them.

this is from 2010 but it suggests we quite like fish compared to other western countries.

so Chileans eat 3 POUNDS of fish, every man woman and child, each week? (tbh I would, could I afford it.)
 
A pound of fish isn't really all that much over a week, when you think that a pound is about one big baked potato or 3-4 apples, and fish is probably heavier. You could account for that by having 1 large cod and chips and maybe a tin of tuna in a week.

Our consumption of fish is probably heavily boosted by it being our most common traditional takeaway food.
Is it? I see way less chippies nowadays than chicken or pizza places.
