A TASTE of IRELAND
What do Irish people really eat, we wondered? Potatoes? Irish Stew? Fish and chips? Corned beef and cabbage? Soups? Turns out they eat all of those and more, except corned beef and cabbage, which is an Irish-American creation and not an actual Irish dish. And yes, they drink a lot of beer - lagers, ales, Guinness and varieties from local breweries. Of course, we tried many of them. We learned to appreciate a good Irish whiskey, too.
