I liked this World Cup beers site which lists not only a selection of beers from all the competing countries but also a tongue in cheek guide to the snacks that each set of fans might be enjoying.

Apparently, English people like to chow down on: ‘A buy one-get-six-free Chicken Tikka and Yorkshire pudding pizza in a Marmite sauce served with alphabetti spaghetti, two frankfurters and a drizzle of bovril.’

They’re having a laugh but that’s a pretty fair description of the UK’s pick and mix cuisine.
